Details

Crater's NotePolicy checks only a blanket Bouncer ability (manage-all-notes / view-all-notes) with no company-ownership comparison, unlike InvoicePolicy and other sibling policies which additionally verify $user->hasCompany($model->company_id). NotesController's show(), update(), and destroy() actions authorize via $this->authorize('view notes'/'manage notes') without passing the target Note model, and Note's company-scoping (scopeWhereCompany) is applied only in the list endpoint, not in show/update/destroy. Any authenticated user of one company can read, edit, or delete another company's notes by ID. This is a distinct finding from the previously reported CustomerPolicy company-ownership omission (a different policy class and controller).

Summary
OneUptime Vulnerable to a Privilege Escalation via Local Storage Key Manipulation
Details

Summary

A security vulnerability exists in oneuptime's local storage handling, where a regular user can escalate privileges by modifying the is_master_admin key to true. This allows unauthorized access to administrative functionalities.

Details

The vulnerability lies in the improper validation of client-side stored data within the web application. Specifically, the is_master_admin key, stored in the local storage of the browser, can be manipulated by an attacker. By changing this key from false to true, the application grants administrative privileges to the user, without proper server-side validation.

POC

(I am using Firefox Developer to demonstrate this vulnerability) Log in as a normal user. Open developer tools (hit F12), click Storage, then Local Storage. Modify the is_master_admin key from false to true.

Impact

This vulnerability represents a high security risk as it allows any authenticated user to gain administrative privileges through client-side manipulation. Most of the admin previlages were disabled except the user list. Where an attacker could see all the list of users who signed up to OneUptome.

Patch

This has been patched in 7.0.1815

Summary
Netmaker IDOR Allows User to Update Other User's Password
Details

Impact

An IDOR vulnerability was found in the user update function. By specifying another user's username it is possible to update the other user's password.

Patches

Issue is patched in 0.17.1, and fixed in 0.18.6+.

If Users are using 0.17.1, they should run "docker pull gravitl/netmaker:v0.17.1" and "docker-compose up -d". This will switch them to the patched users

If users are using v0.18.0-0.18.5, they should upgrade to v0.18.6 or later.

Workarounds

If using 0.17.1, can just pull the latest docker image of backend and restart server.

GHSA-258V-W87Q-M5C9

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-09-04 15:36 – Updated: 2026-09-04 15:36
VLAI
Details

Chatbot UI contains an authorization bypass vulnerability in the retrieval endpoint that allows authenticated attackers to access private file content belonging to other users by supplying arbitrary file UUIDs. The endpoint uses a service-role Supabase client that bypasses row-level security and fails to validate file ownership, enabling attackers to retrieve indexed content chunks from victim files through crafted POST requests.

Mitigation
Architecture and Design

For each and every data access, ensure that the user has sufficient privilege to access the record that is being requested.

Mitigation
Architecture and Design Implementation

Make sure that the key that is used in the lookup of a specific user's record is not controllable externally by the user or that any tampering can be detected.

Mitigation
Architecture and Design

Use encryption in order to make it more difficult to guess other legitimate values of the key or associate a digital signature with the key so that the server can verify that there has been no tampering.

No CAPEC attack patterns related to this CWE.
