ProjeQtor versions 7.0 through 12.4.3 contain a missing authorization vulnerability in the objectDetail.php endpoint that allows authenticated users with guest-level privileges to retrieve sensitive data belonging to other users including password hashes and API keys. Attackers can bypass access controls by directly accessing the endpoint without ownership or role-based validation to extract administrator credentials and perform privilege escalation.
AnalysisAI
Sensitive data disclosure in ProjeQtor 7.0 through 12.4.3 lets an authenticated guest-level user retrieve other users' records - including password hashes and API keys - by directly calling the objectDetail.php endpoint, which fails to enforce ownership or role checks (CWE-862). Because the exposed administrator credentials enable privilege escalation, the flaw effectively promotes a low-privilege account to full control. Publicly available exploit code exists, though EPSS is low (0.06%, 18th percentile) and it is not on CISA KEV, indicating no public exploit identified as actively used in the wild.
Technical ContextAI
ProjeQtor is a PHP-based open-source project management/collaboration application (CPE cpe:2.3:a:projeqtor:projeqtor). The objectDetail.php endpoint returns the detail view of an arbitrary object identified by parameters in the request. The root cause is CWE-862 (Missing Authorization): the endpoint authenticates the session but never performs an object-level access-control check binding the requested record to the caller's identity or role. As a result, any logged-in principal - even a guest-tier account - can enumerate object IDs and read fields (user records containing password hashes and API keys) that should be restricted, an insecure-direct-object-reference-style horizontal and vertical access control failure.
RemediationAI
Upgrade ProjeQtor to a release later than 12.4.3 that contains the objectDetail.php authorization fix; no exact patched version number is provided in the input, so consult the vendor at https://www.projeqtor.com and the VulnCheck advisory (https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/projeqtor-missing-authorization-via-objectdetail-php) for the fixed build before deploying. As compensating controls until patched: restrict network access to the ProjeQtor instance to trusted users (VPN/IP allowlist) to shrink the pool of accounts that can reach the endpoint; tighten account provisioning by disabling or removing guest-level accounts and self-registration so an attacker cannot obtain the minimal credential the exploit needs (trade-off: blocks legitimate guest/collaborator workflows); and, since credential material may already be exposed, rotate all user passwords and regenerate API keys after upgrading (trade-off: forces re-authentication and breaks integrations using old keys). If feasible, front the endpoint with a WAF/reverse-proxy rule limiting objectDetail.php parameters or rate to hinder ID enumeration, accepting possible false positives on legitimate detail views.
