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. |
| Impact | The CVSS 6.9 score reflects a network-adjacent vector with low complexity and low confidentiality impact. The CVSS 4.0 vector confirms unauthenticated access (PR:N), no user interaction (UI:N), and low confidentiality impact (VC:L), but notably no integrity or availability impact. The authentication bypass tag elevates real-world risk-this is not a zero-click vulnerability but does not require valid credentials, lowering barriers to exploitation. No EPSS score or active exploitation status (KEV) was provided in the intelligence, suggesting this may be a recently disclosed or pre-release advisory. However, the specific version constraints (16.14.0 and 15.104.0 as fixes) indicate the vendor has assessed and patched the issue. The vulnerability's focus on information disclosure via API abuse makes it a realistic priority for organizations running Frappe, particularly those exposing Frappe instances to untrusted networks. Organizations with strict network segmentation may face lower practical risk. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An unauthenticated attacker sends crafted HTTP requests to Frappe API endpoints (e.g., /api/resource/[Doctype]) without providing authentication credentials. The API layer fails to validate permissions and returns sensitive Doctype metadata or records that should be restricted. This allows the attacker to enumerate available document types and retrieve confidential application data such as customer lists, product catalogs, or configuration information without any valid user account. No special complexity or privilege escalation is required, and no proof-of-concept code needs to be crafted beyond standard API client tools. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Apr 07, 2026
Frappe web application framework prior to versions 16.14.0 and 15.104.0 allows unauthenticated remote attackers to bypass access controls and retrieve restricted Doctype data through API endpoints, resulting in information disclosure of sensitive application data. The vulnerability is tagged as an authentication bypass with a CVSS 6.9 score and exploits missing authorization checks on API methods.
RemediationAI
Upgrade Frappe immediately to version 16.14.0 or later if running version 16.x, or to version 15.104.0 or later if running version 15.x. Organizations unable to upgrade immediately should implement network-level access controls to restrict API endpoint exposure, disable or restrict API access for untrusted clients, and review Frappe's permission system to ensure Doctypes are not inadvertently marked as public. Detailed remediation guidance and verification steps are available in the GitHub security advisory at https://github.com/frappe/frappe/security/advisories/GHSA-8ggw-hfr6-rw3x. After patching, test API endpoints with unauthenticated requests to confirm authorization checks are enforced.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Frappe is a full-stack Python web framework built on top of ERPNext and other applications. The vulnerability exists in Frappe's API layer, which provides RESTful endpoints for Doctype (document type) operations. CWE-862 (Missing Authorization) indicates that the framework fails to properly validate user permissions before allowing access to Doctype resources. The affected versions lack sufficient access control mechanisms on API endpoints, permitting unauthenticated requests to enumerate and retrieve Doctype metadata and potentially associated records. This affects the core authorization logic that should restrict data access based on user roles and document permissions.
