Exploitation Conditions

Authenticated attacker with valid template-generation permissions in their own team on Chartbrew prior to 4.9.0 can exploit the cross-tenant authorization bypass by sending GET requests to /team/:team_id/template/generate/:project_id with an arbitrary project_id from another tenant. No victim interaction required.

Impact

CVSS 7.7 reflects high confidentiality impact via cross-tenant data exposure in a multi-tenant SaaS platform. Unauthenticated access is not required-only valid user credentials and template permissions within one tenant enable access to arbitrary other tenants' project data. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the flaw is trivial to exploit (network-accessible, low complexity). Organizations hosting or using Chartbrew versions before 4.9.0 face immediate confidentiality breach risk.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

Authenticated attacker with valid Chartbrew account enumerates team IDs across instances, then crafts GET requests to /team/{target_team_id}/template/generate/{target_project_id} with their own valid session token. The unvalidated project_id parameter and unawaited promise bypass authorization checks, returning victim project templates containing sensitive database or API credentials and data structure information.

AnalysisAIv1 – Apr 10, 2026

Cross-tenant authorization bypass in Chartbrew versions prior to 4.9.0 allows authenticated attackers to exfiltrate sensitive project data from other tenants. The vulnerability exists in the template generation endpoint (GET /team/:team_id/template/generate/:project_id), where unawaited promise execution and missing tenant validation enable attackers with valid template-generation permissions in their own team to access chart configurations, database connection details, and query structures from victim teams' projects. No public exploit identified at time of analysis. CVSS 7.7 reflects high confidentiality impact with scope change due to cross-tenant boundary violation.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: version 4.9.0. Organizations running Chartbrew must immediately upgrade to version 4.9.0 or later, which implements synchronous await on authorization checks and adds project-to-team ownership validation. The fix is available via commit bf5919043d3587fcbe76123aaabd9a0a9d1033f1. As temporary mitigation, restrict template generation permissions to trusted users only and audit access logs for suspicious cross-team project access attempts. No effective workaround exists without upgrading. Full security advisory: https://github.com/chartbrew/chartbrew/security/advisories/GHSA-mw4f-cf22-qpcj. Verify tenant isolation after patching by testing project access controls across team boundaries.

Technical ContextAI · show details

CWE-285 improper authorization stems from race condition in asynchronous access control. The checkAccess(req, "updateAny", "chart") promise executes without await keyword, causing handler to proceed before authorization completes. Missing ownership verification between project_id and team_id parameters allows arbitrary project access. Scope change (S:C) in CVSS vector reflects privilege escalation across tenant boundaries in multi-tenant architecture.

DescriptionGitHub Advisory

Chartbrew is an open-source web application that can connect directly to databases and APIs and use the data to create charts. Prior to 4.9.0, a cross-tenant authorization bypass exists in Chartbrew in GET /team/:team_id/template/generate/:project_id. The GET handler calls checkAccess(req, "updateAny", "chart") without awaiting the returned promise, and it does not verify that the supplied project_id belongs to req.params.team_id or to the caller's team. As a result, an authenticated attacker with valid template-generation permissions in their own team can request the template model for a project belonging to another team and receive victim project data. This vulnerability is fixed in 4.9.0.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

Chartbrew versions before 4.9.0 contain a cross-tenant authorization bypass that allows authenticated users to access sensitive project data belonging to other organizations, including database credentials and query configurations. This vulnerability directly threatens data confidentiality across multi-tenant deployments and requires immediate patching to prevent lateral data exposure between customer environments.

Business Impact: High
Compensating Controls

Apply vendor patch. Until patching is complete: restrict template generation feature access to essential users only, implement network segmentation to limit Chartbrew instance accessibility, and enable comprehensive audit logging on the affected endpoint to detect anomalous cross-tenant requests.
