| Exploitation Conditions | Requires a valid low-privileged authenticated account on the CordysCRM instance (PR:L) and knowledge of a target record ID for an existing customer, clue, or opportunity. The specific prerequisite is that the follow/record/add endpoints (CustomerFollowRecordController, ClueFollowRecordController, FollowUpRecordController / BaseFollowUpService) trust a client-supplied owner field as the permission check, so an attacker simply sets owner to their own user id to bypass ownership enforcement. Limiting factors that reduce real-world risk: exploitation is impossible without credentials, impact is confined to the integrity of follow-up records (follow_time, follower) with no confidentiality or availability effect, and the attacker must already know valid target record identifiers. |
| Impact | This is a moderate, authenticated-only authorization bypass (CWE-639, insecure direct object reference via a user-controlled owner field), not a top-tier priority. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N) confirms network-reachable, low-complexity exploitation but requires existing low-privileged credentials (PR:L), so it is NOT unauthenticated. Impact is narrow: VI:L with VC:N and VA:N means integrity-only - an attacker can write/overwrite follow-up records (follow_time, follower) on records they do not own, but cannot read confidential data or cause availability loss. A public PoC exists (poc_follow_record_add.py), which raises practical exploitability, but there is no CISA KEV listing and no EPSS score was provided in the input, so there is no evidence of active or widespread exploitation. The signals are internally consistent (low-severity integrity flaw, authenticated vector, PoC available), so the realistic picture is a low-complexity but low-impact flaw that matters mainly for multi-tenant CRM deployments where data integrity and attribution matter. No EPSS or SSVC data was supplied; that absence is noted rather than inferred. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | A low-privileged authenticated CRM user crafts requests to the follow/record/add endpoints, setting the owner field to their own user id so the request passes the permission check, then adds or overwrites follow-up records on customers, clues, or opportunities they do not own. A public Python PoC (poc_follow_record_add.py) demonstrates this against known record IDs. Because CVSS is AV:N/AC:L, the requests are simple HTTP calls requiring only valid low-privilege credentials and no user interaction. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 11, 2026
Authorization bypass in CordysCRM through 1.9.3 allows low-privileged authenticated users to add follow-up records and overwrite follow_time and follower on any known customer, clue, or opportunity by setting the owner field to their own user id. Exploitation requires a valid low-privileged account and knowledge of a target record ID; the impact is limited to integrity of follow-up records with no confidentiality or availability effect. Publicly available exploit code exists, though CISA KEV does not list this as actively exploited. This is a moderate-priority authenticated-only vulnerability (CWE-639).
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch version is specified in the available data. The primary remediation is to upgrade CordysCRM beyond 1.9.3 once a fixed version is released; monitor the vendor advisory for updates. In the meantime, implement compensating controls: enforce server-side ownership checks that do not rely on client-supplied fields such as 'owner' in the follow-up record add endpoints, audit and restrict the ability to create follow-up records to users who legitimately own the target customer, clue, or opportunity, and monitor for anomalous additions or modifications to follow_time and follower fields. If follow-up record creation is not essential for low-privileged users, consider disabling or restricting access to the follow/record/add endpoints, though this will break follow-up functionality. Additionally, limit knowledge of record identifiers where possible and review access logs for suspicious activity. No public exploit mitigation beyond authentication and authorization hardening is available.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The vulnerability is an instance of CWE-639 (Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key), also known as insecure direct object reference (IDOR). The CordysCRM follow-up record add endpoints-CustomerFollowRecordController, ClueFollowRecordController, and FollowUpRecordController, supported by BaseFollowUpService-accept a client-supplied 'owner' field and use it as the primary permission check instead of verifying that the authenticated user owns the target record. This allows an attacker to set owner to their own user id and bypass ownership enforcement, enabling the addition of follow-up records to arbitrary customers, clues, or opportunities when the attacker knows the record identifier. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N) and independent CVSS 3.1 assessment confirm the attack requires low privileges and affects only integrity of follow-up records, with no impact on confidentiality or availability.

DescriptionCVE.org
CordysCRM through 1.9.3 contains an authorization bypass vulnerability that allows low-privileged authenticated users to skip permission checks by setting the owner field to their own user id. Attackers can send requests to the follow/record/add endpoints to add follow-up records and overwrite follow_time and follower on any known customer, clue or opportunity.
