Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Mar 12, 2026
Chartbrew versions before 4.8.1 fail to validate chart ownership during modification operations, allowing authenticated users to read, modify, or delete charts from other projects they shouldn't access. An attacker with valid credentials to any project can exploit this authorization bypass to manipulate arbitrary charts across the application. Public exploit code exists for this vulnerability, and no patch is currently available.
Earlier versions of this analysis (1)
Chartbrew is an open-source web application that can connect directly to databases and APIs and use the data to create charts. Prior to version 4.8.1, the application performs authorization checks based solely on the project_id parameter when handling chart-related operations (update, delete, etc.). [CVSS 6.5 MEDIUM]
RemediationAI
Fixed in version 4.8.1.. Restrict network access to the affected service where possible.

Classified as CWE-284 (Improper Access Control). Affects Chartbrew. Chartbrew is an open-source web application that can connect directly to databases and APIs and use the data to create charts. Prior to version 4.8.1, the application performs authorization checks based solely on the project_id parameter when handling chart-related operations (update, delete, etc.). No authorization check is performed against the chart_id itself. This allows an authenticated user who has access to any project to manipulate or access charts belonging to other users/ project. This
