| Exploitation Conditions | Remote unauthenticated attacker can exploit Tandoor Recipes versions prior to 2.6.4 by sending crafted POST requests to /api/food/{id}/shopping/ endpoint with cross-Space unit IDs to leak foreign-key references across tenant boundaries or trigger HTTP 500 errors with invalid amount values. |
| Impact | Real-world risk is moderate-high for multi-tenant Tandoor deployments, though lower for single-user instances. The CVSS 7.3 score (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) correctly identifies network accessibility and low exploitation complexity with no authentication required, yielding partial impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The confidentiality impact stems from cross-tenant unit ID leakage, which could expose organizational structure or recipe metadata from other tenants. Integrity impact involves polluting shopping lists with invalid data or foreign unit references. Availability impact is immediate via trivial denial-of-service by sending malformed amount values to crash request handlers. However, practical exploitation requires knowledge of valid food IDs and the API structure, limiting fully automated mass exploitation. No EPSS score is available, but the combination of unauthenticated access, low complexity, and publicly documented remediation in GitHub advisories suggests moderate exploitation likelihood once details are widely known. No public exploit code exists and the vulnerability is not on CISA KEV, indicating no confirmed active exploitation. SSVC factors: exploitation is possible (technical details public), automatable (API-based, repeatable), and technical impact is moderate (limited to application-layer DoS and metadata leakage, not system compromise). Priority should be high for SaaS/multi-tenant deployments, medium for self-hosted single-tenant instances. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An unauthenticated attacker identifies a public-facing Tandoor Recipes instance (version <2.6.4) and enumerates valid food object IDs through trial-and-error or by scraping publicly accessible recipe pages. The attacker sends crafted POST requests to /api/food/{valid_id}/shopping/ with amount set to a non-numeric string (e.g., 'XXX'), causing repeated HTTP 500 errors and degrading service availability for legitimate users. In a multi-tenant scenario, the attacker further sends requests with unit IDs incrementally iterated across a range, successfully associating unit objects from Tenant A's Space with shopping list entries nominally scoped to Tenant B, thereby leaking foreign-key relationships and potentially exposing organizational recipe structures or ingredient taxonomies across tenant boundaries. No public exploit code exists, but exploitation requires only basic HTTP client tools and knowledge of REST API conventions. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Apr 07, 2026
Unauthenticated API input validation flaws in Tandoor Recipes (<2.6.4) enable cross-tenant data leakage and denial of service. The /api/food/{id}/shopping/ endpoint accepts unvalidated amount and unit parameters, allowing attackers to cause application crashes via malformed numeric inputs (HTTP 500 errors) and leak foreign-key references across multi-tenant Space boundaries by associating unit IDs from other tenants. CVSS 7.3 reflects network-accessible, low-complexity attacks requiring no authentication. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, though exploitation is straightforward via direct API calls. EPSS data not available. Vendor-released patch: version 2.6.4.
RemediationAI
Upgrade to Tandoor Recipes version 2.6.4 or later, which implements proper input validation by routing the vulnerable endpoint through ShoppingListEntrySerializer to enforce field-type validation and tenant boundary checks. The fix is available in the official release at https://github.com/TandoorRecipes/recipes/releases/tag/2.6.4. For environments where immediate upgrade is not feasible, implement network-level access controls to restrict API endpoint access to authenticated users only, though this is a mitigation rather than a complete fix as it does not address the cross-tenant data leakage for authenticated users in multi-tenant deployments. Review application logs for HTTP 500 errors on the /api/food/*/shopping/ endpoint and unexpected ShoppingListEntry records with cross-Space unit references to identify potential exploitation attempts. No temporary code-level workaround is documented; the architectural fix in 2.6.4 is the definitive remediation.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Tandoor Recipes is a Django-based web application for recipe management with multi-tenant architecture using Space-based isolation. The vulnerability exists in a POST endpoint at /api/food/{id}/shopping/ that bypasses the application's standard ShoppingListEntrySerializer validation layer. Instead of using the serializer's field validation, the endpoint directly reads amount (expected numeric) and unit (foreign key to Unit model) from request.data and passes them to Django ORM's ShoppingListEntry.objects.create() without sanitization. This creates two distinct issues: (1) Type confusion when non-numeric strings are passed as amount values, causing Python/Django exceptions that propagate as HTTP 500 errors; (2) Missing tenant isolation checks on the unit foreign key, allowing an attacker to reference Unit objects from different Space contexts, violating the multi-tenant boundary and exposing cross-tenant foreign-key relationships. The root cause maps to CWE-639 (Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key), where user-supplied foreign keys are not validated against authorization context. All other ShoppingListEntry creation endpoints properly use ShoppingListEntrySerializer, which includes field-level validation and tenant boundary enforcement, making this an isolated architectural inconsistency.

Lifecycle Timeline
3DescriptionCVE.org
Tandoor Recipes is an application for managing recipes, planning meals, and building shopping lists. Prior to 2.6.4, the POST /api/food/{id}/shopping/ endpoint reads amount and unit directly from request.data and passes them without validation to ShoppingListEntry.objects.create(). Invalid amount values (non-numeric strings) cause an unhandled exception and HTTP 500. A unit ID from a different Space can be associated cross-space, leaking foreign-key references across tenant boundaries. All other endpoints creating ShoppingListEntry use ShoppingListEntrySerializer, which validates and sanitizes these fields. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.6.4.
Executive ViewAI
Tandoor Recipes versions prior to 2.6.4 contain unauthenticated API flaws that allow attackers to trigger application crashes and leak data across tenant boundaries without credentials, directly exposing multi-tenant recipe and food data isolation controls. Organizations running affected versions face immediate service disruption risk and confidentiality breach of isolated tenant information.
Vendor-released patch: version 2.6.4. If immediate patching is not feasible, implement network-level API rate limiting on the /api/food/{id}/shopping/ endpoint, disable or restrict API access to trusted networks only, and monitor for HTTP 500 errors on this endpoint as a potential exploitation indicator.
