CVE-2025-27154

Spotipy is a lightweight Python library for the Spotify Web API. The `CacheHandler` class creates a cache file to store the auth token. Prior to version 2.25.1, the file created has `rw-r--r--` (644) permissions by default, when it could be locked down to `rw-------` (600) permissions. This leads to overly broad exposure of the spotify auth token. If this token can be read by an attacker (another user on the machine, or a process running as another user), it can be used to perform administrative actions on the Spotify account, depending on the scope granted to the token. Version 2.25.1 tightens the cache file permissions.

Summary
  • (es) Spotipy es una librería Python liviana para la API web de Spotify. La clase `CacheHandler` crea un archivo de caché para almacenar el token de autenticación. Antes de la versión 2.25.1, el archivo creado tenía permisos `rw-r--r--` (644) de forma predeterminada, cuando podía limitarse a permisos `rw-------` (600). Esto conduce a una exposición demasiado amplia del token de autenticación de Spotify. Si un atacante puede leer este token (otro usuario en la máquina o un proceso que se ejecuta como otro usuario), se puede usar para realizar acciones administrativas en la cuenta de Spotify, según el alcance otorgado al token. La versión 2.25.1 restringe los permisos del archivo de caché.
