Alby Hub: The old version has critical vulnerabilities that expose the management API publicly or may lead to fund transfers

Bitcoin News posted on the X platform that Alby confirmed a critical vulnerability exists in Alby Hub v1.7.0 to v1.18.5. If the management API is exposed to the public network, attackers may gain unauthorized access and transfer funds. Currently, it is known that 1 user has been affected, and Alby Hub v1.19.0 and higher versions are not affected.

Alby recommends that affected users restrict public access to the management interface, immediately update to v1.24.0, and change the unlock password after the update. Multiple issues reported by Bitcoin Team Red, Project Loupe, and other researchers have also been fixed in the latest version.
