MITRE ATT&CK
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. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires the attacker to hold a valid authenticated session on the CVAT instance (PR:L, confirmed by CVSS vector). The target deployment must use CVAT's quality reports feature with at least two organizations present, as the oracle only reveals cross-organizational data boundaries in multi-tenant configurations. Exploitation is limited to report ID existence disclosure - report content, metadata, and annotation data are not exposed. Single-organization deployments gain no meaningful attacker advantage from this flaw. No special network position or elevated privileges beyond standard user authentication are required. |
| Impact | The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N) scores 5.3 and accurately reflects the limited impact: only report existence is disclosed, not report content, and exploitation requires valid credentials (PR:L). The attack complexity is genuinely low - sequential integer enumeration is trivially scriptable and requires no special tooling. There is no KEV listing and no publicly known POC at time of analysis, and EPSS data was not provided. The real-world risk is highest in multi-tenant CVAT deployments where organizational boundary enforcement is a security requirement, such as managed annotation platforms or shared enterprise instances. In single-organization deployments the practical impact is negligible. The missing integrity and availability impact vectors confirm this is a confidentiality-only, low-severity information disclosure with no direct path to escalation from the vulnerability alone. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An authenticated user on a shared CVAT instance iterates requests to the quality reports API with sequential parent_id integers: /api/quality/reports?parent_id=1, ?parent_id=2, and so on. HTTP 500 responses reveal that a report with that ID exists (and belongs to another organization), while HTTP 404 responses confirm the ID does not exist. The attacker thereby constructs a map of all cross-organization report IDs without reading their content. No public POC code has been identified, but the technique requires only a basic scripted HTTP client. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Jun 30, 2026
Cross-organization report enumeration in CVAT before 2.69.0 exposes the existence of quality reports belonging to other organizations to any authenticated user. The vulnerability stems from a missing authorization gate in QualityReportViewSet.get_queryset, where the parent_id query parameter is processed without invoking check_object_permissions, allowing cross-tenant enumeration via differential HTTP response analysis. No public exploit or CISA KEV listing exists, but the attack is trivially automatable by any authenticated user in a multi-organization CVAT deployment.
RemediationAI
Upgrade CVAT to version 2.69.0, which contains the fix introduced via commit 27953f19d2265f8b495369f816730a7452db791b (PR #10807, https://github.com/cvat-ai/cvat/pull/10807). The patch adds the missing check_object_permissions call for the parent_id query parameter path. If immediate upgrade is not feasible, operators running multi-organization deployments should consider restricting API access to the quality reports endpoint at the network or reverse-proxy layer - for example, blocking or rate-limiting requests to /api/quality/reports with a parent_id parameter from users outside a designated administrator role - though this carries a trade-off of degraded legitimate functionality. Complete remediation requires the code-level fix in 2.69.0; network controls alone do not close the authorization gap.

Technical ContextAI · show details
CVAT (cpe:2.3:a:cvat-ai:cvat:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) is an open-source computer vision annotation platform developed by cvat-ai. The quality reports subsystem exposes a REST API endpoint that accepts a parent_id query parameter to filter reports. CWE-862 (Missing Authorization) applies: Django REST Framework viewsets are expected to call check_object_permissions on resource lookups, but QualityReportViewSet.get_queryset omits this call for the parent_id filter path. As a result, the ORM query executes against any provided parent_id - including those belonging to other organizations - and the differing error responses (HTTP 500 for an existing-but-forbidden report, HTTP 404 for a non-existent one) function as a side-channel oracle. The root cause is an incomplete authorization implementation rather than a broken one: object-level permissions exist but are not uniformly enforced across all query entry points.

Lifecycle Timeline
1DescriptionCVE.org
CVAT before 2.69.0 contains an improper authorization vulnerability in QualityReportViewSet.get_queryset that allows authenticated attackers to enumerate quality report identifiers belonging to other organizations by exploiting a missing check_object_permissions call on the parent_id query parameter of the quality reports API endpoint. Attackers can send requests with sequential integer parent_id values and distinguish between existing and non-existing reports via HTTP 500 versus HTTP 404 response differences, disclosing cross-organization report existence without returning report content.
