# Bandcamp Player: remote control server lacks authentication when enabled

The bandcamp-player desktop app's Remote Control Server can be switched on through the remoteEnabled setting without requiring authentication. A remote attacker who can reach the server can control the player without logging in.

_Summary, check and fix written by a model from the sources; labelled as such._

## How to check

- Check the installed version of bandcamp-player; versions up to `1.8.33-beta` are affected.
- Check whether the Remote Control Server is enabled in the app settings (`remoteEnabled`).

## Fix

- Upgrade bandcamp-player to `1.8.34-beta` or later (patch commit `ccba99b66bc61acf46e4a332034799d7452ddea6`).
- Turn off the Remote Control Server until the upgrade is applied.

## From the sources

A flaw has been found in eremef bandcamp-player up to 1.8.33-beta. The impacted element is an unknown function of the file database.ts of the component Remote Control Server. Executing a manipulation of the argument remoteEnabled can lead to missing authentication. The attack may be launched remotely. Upgrading to version 1.8.34-beta is sufficient to resolve this issue. This patch is called ccba99b66bc61acf46e4a332034799d7452ddea6. Upgrading the affected component is advised.
