LINE Debugging Interface Information Disclosure

Medium

Synopsis

When monitoring bot accounts, users use the chat streaming API as a means to view chat, event, and other logs for a given bot. A sample logging endpoint looks like the following: https://chat-streaming-api.line.biz/api/v1/sse?token=kixNaKJQJ6iVNZWLVL6297A07Oh3tcensoredFBf2Nv  Accessing this endpoint does not require any authentication beyond what is included in the URL. If this link were generated and passed around to developers or captured in some sort of log aggregator, it could potentially be leaked to parties that should not have this privilege. This exposed potentially sensitive chat communications and PII of users communicating with the bot.

Solution

LINE has patched this issue by limiting all access tokens to a single use.
