MITRE ATT&CK
1 technique across 1 tactic: Privilege Escalation The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Requires a valid authenticated JeecgBoot account with low privileges (PR:L) - the flaw is reachable by any logged-in user, not anonymous visitors. The exact trigger is the SysCheckRuleController importExcel handler, which omits the system:checkRule:add permission check that normally gates validation-rule creation; the attacker must submit a crafted Excel (.xlsx) workbook to that import endpoint. Limiting factors: exploitation is gated on obtaining or possessing any authenticated session, so exposure is higher where JeecgBoot is internet-facing or where self-registration/weak account provisioning exists, and impact is confined to integrity of system-wide encoding validation rules (no direct data disclosure or service outage). Affects JeecgBoot versions through 3.9.5. |
| Impact | This is a medium-severity, lower-tier priority issue rather than an urgent emergency. The provided CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N) confirms network-reachable, low-complexity exploitation but requires low-privileged authentication (PR:L), and the impact is limited to integrity only (VI:L) with no confidentiality or availability effect (VC:N/VA:N) - consistent with the 5.3 score and the CWE-862 missing-authorization root cause. The signals are mostly aligned: a public POC exists (increasing practical reachability for anyone with a valid account), but there is NO CISA KEV listing and NO EPSS score provided in the input, so there is no evidence of active or widespread exploitation. The tension here is between POC availability (raises likelihood for authenticated insiders/attackers who have obtained any account) and the modest technical impact plus authentication requirement (caps real-world severity). The 'Authentication Bypass' tag is somewhat imprecise - the flaw is a missing authorization check (permission bypass for an already-authenticated user), not authentication bypass - which matters for accurate triage. Net: treat as a patch-in-normal-cycle item, not a drop-everything issue, unless JeecgBoot is internet-exposed with weak account controls. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | A low-privileged but authenticated JeecgBoot user (e.g., a basic operator account) sends a crafted Excel workbook to the SysCheckRuleController importExcel endpoint, which fails to enforce the system:checkRule:add permission. The upload bulk-creates system-wide encoding validation rules containing arbitrary regular-expression patterns, letting the attacker tamper with validation logic across the platform. A public proof-of-concept (poc_c084_checkrule_import_xlsx.py) demonstrates the request, lowering the barrier to reproduction. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 10, 2026
Missing authorization in JeecgBoot through 3.9.5 allows any authenticated low-privileged user to bypass the system:checkRule:add permission check in the SysCheckRuleController importExcel handler and bulk-create system-wide encoding validation rules from a crafted Excel workbook. Publicly available exploit code exists (a Python PoC published on GitHub), though there is no confirmed active exploitation (CISA KEV) and no EPSS score was supplied; the CVSS v4.0 base score is 5.3 (CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N) and our independent assessment rates it as a medium-severity, lower-tier priority issue rather than an urgent emergency. Exploitation requires a valid low-privileged account (PR:L), so exposure is highest where JeecgBoot is internet-facing or where self-registration or weak account provisioning is enabled; impact is confined to the integrity of validation rules, with no direct data disclosure or service outage.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis: the available references point only to the vulnerable source lines and the VulnCheck advisory (https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/jeecgboot-through-3.9.5-missing-authorization-via-sys-checkrule-importexcel), with no fixed version, commit, or upgrade target specified, so organizations should track the JeecgBoot project advisory channel and apply a fixed release as soon as one is published. Until then, apply compensating controls with awareness of their trade-offs: add the missing system:checkRule:add authority check to the SysCheckRuleController importExcel handler in a locally maintained patch branch (low risk, but must be re-applied on every upgrade); block or restrict the check-rule import endpoint at the reverse proxy or WAF so that only administrative roles can reach it (effective, but it disables the legitimate bulk-import workflow for those users); and tighten account provisioning by disabling self-registration and removing dormant low-privileged accounts, since exploitation is gated entirely on possession of any authenticated session (reduces exposure but does not close the flaw). Because the PoC at https://github.com/AnkesKasty/cve-request-poc/blob/a7b6d1423555812d8efa26c91c5d0683164b31e5/JeecgBoot/poc_c084_checkrule_import_xlsx.py is publicly available, prioritize internet-facing instances for these controls and audit the existing check-rule table for unexpected regex entries created via import.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The vulnerability is an instance of CWE-862 (Missing Authorization) in JeecgBoot, a Java/Spring Boot low-code development platform. The affected code path is the importExcel handler in jeecg-boot/jeecg-module-system/jeecg-system-biz/src/main/java/org/jeecg/modules/system/controller/SysCheckRuleController.java (lines 192-208 per the vendor-linked source reference), which performs bulk creation of check rules from an uploaded .xlsx workbook parsed with the standard Java Excel/POI stack. Unlike the interactive rule-creation path, the import handler does not enforce the system:checkRule:add authority before processing the workbook, so any authenticated session - regardless of whether it holds that permission - can reach the bulk-insert logic. Because check rules in JeecgBoot are system-wide encoding/validation rules expressed as regular expressions, a successful upload writes attacker-chosen regex patterns into the rule set that apply across the application, affecting the integrity of subsequent input-validation behavior. The CVSS v4.0 vector confirms network reachability (AV:N), no special conditions (AT:N), low privileges (PR:L) and no user interaction (UI:N), with impact limited to integrity (VI:L) and no confidentiality or availability effect; the affected product identifier is cpe:2.3:a:jeecgboot:jeecgboot:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*, and VulnCheck is credited as the reporter.

DescriptionCVE.org
JeecgBoot through 3.9.5 contains a missing authorization vulnerability that allows low-privileged authenticated users to create validation rules through the SysCheckRuleController importExcel handler. Attackers can upload a crafted Excel workbook to bypass the system:checkRule:add permission and bulk-create system-wide encoding validation rules with arbitrary regular expression patterns.
