Lifecycle Timeline

MicroRealEstate is affected by broken object-level access controls in PDF generator functionality.
This issue affects MicroRealEstate: through 1.0.0-alpha3.
AnalysisAI
Sensitive document disclosure in MicroRealEstate through 1.0.0-alpha3 lets an authenticated low-privilege user retrieve PDF documents belonging to other tenants or organizations by manipulating object identifiers passed to the PDF generator. Classified under CWE-639 (IDOR) and CVSS 4.0 7.1, the flaw exposes confidential data (VC:H) without requiring integrity or availability impact. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and it is not listed in CISA KEV.
Technical ContextAI
MicroRealEstate is an open-source, self-hosted property/real-estate management platform (landlord, tenant, rent, lease and document management) typically deployed as a set of Node.js microservices behind a gateway. The affected component is the PDF generator functionality, which produces documents such as leases, rent notices and receipts tied to specific tenants or organizations. The root cause is CWE-639, Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key: the service resolves the requested document from a client-supplied identifier (e.g. document or tenant ID) without verifying that the authenticated caller is authorized for that object - a classic broken object-level authorization (BOLA/IDOR) pattern. The vendor tag 'Authentication Bypass' is somewhat imprecise; the CVSS PR:L metric and CWE-639 indicate an authorization (access-control) bypass by an already-authenticated principal rather than a true unauthenticated authentication bypass.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis - the references point only to the upstream GitHub repository (https://github.com/microrealestate/microrealestate) and the reporter advisory (https://www.themissinglink.com.au/security-advisories/cve-2026-57868), with no tagged fixed release beyond 1.0.0-alpha3. Because the product is at alpha stage, operators should monitor the repository releases and the advisory for a patched build and upgrade as soon as one is published. As compensating controls until a fix ships: restrict access to the PDF generator/document endpoints at the gateway or reverse proxy and limit accounts to trusted internal users to shrink the pool of potential attackers; if feasible, disable or gate the PDF generation feature in shared multi-tenant deployments (trade-off: users lose lease/receipt PDF export); and add server-side authorization checks or an object-ownership filter in front of the document service so that document identifiers are validated against the caller's tenant/organization (trade-off: requires local code modification and testing). Network exposure should be minimized by keeping the instance off the public internet where possible.
