### Summary A security vulnerability has been identified in navidrome's subsonic endpoint, allowing for authentication bypass. This exploit enables unauthorized access to any known account by utilizing a JSON Web Token (JWT) signed with the key "not so secret". The vulnerability can only be exploited on instances that have never been restarted. ### Details Navidrome supports an extension to the subsonic authentication scheme, where a JWT can be provided using a `jwt` query parameter instead of the traditional password or token and salt (corresponding to resp. the `p` or `t` and `s` query parameters). During the first initialization, navidrome generates a random key that is then used by the authentication module to validate JWTs before extracting the username from the `sub` claim. If for some reason the key cannot be retrieved by the initialization code, a hardcoded value is used instead: "not so secret". A bug in the order of operations during navidrome startup results in the aut...
