|
| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires an authenticated user account with valid credentials to the SuperAGI application - this is the critical limiting factor. Default SuperAGI installations with open user registration or shared test credentials are at highest risk. Once authenticated, the vulnerability can be exploited without additional user interaction or special configuration. The three affected endpoints (get_project, update_project, get_projects_organisation) do not validate that the authenticated user owns or has access to the requested project resource, so any authenticated user can enumerate and modify arbitrary projects by varying project identifiers. Non-default configurations such as network isolation, WAF rules, or reverse proxy authentication can reduce but do not eliminate the risk. Exploitation is limited to the project management subsystem; system-level administrative functions are not affected by this vulnerability. |
| Impact | This is a moderate-severity authorization bypass with several confirming signals of real-world risk. The CVSS 5.3 score reflects network-accessible attack surface (AV:N), low attack complexity (AC:L), and requirement for prior authentication (PR:L), which correctly models the threat model. The CVSS vector indicates limited impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability (VC:L, VI:L, VA:L) - consistent with horizontal privilege escalation within the same user role tier rather than full system compromise. Critically, the exploit has been publicly disclosed (POC status confirmed), and the vendor's non-response to early notification suggests no patch is forthcoming, elevating the practical risk for organizations using SuperAGI in production. However, the attack requires valid credentials (PR:L), which narrows the threat to insider threats, compromised accounts, or environments where user registration is open. The authorization bypass scope is confined to project-level operations rather than system-wide, limiting damage to the affected project's data rather than the entire application. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker with valid credentials (such as a low-privileged user or insider) authenticates to the SuperAGI application. Using the publicly available exploit code from GitHub, the attacker crafts requests to the get_project endpoint with project IDs belonging to other users or teams, successfully retrieving sensitive project configuration and data without authorization checks. The attacker then uses the update_project endpoint to modify another user's project settings, such as changing AI model configurations or stealing intellectual property embedded in the project definition. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Apr 20, 2026
Authorization bypass in TransformerOptimus SuperAGI up to version 0.0.14 allows authenticated remote attackers to access or modify project data without proper authorization checks in the project controller endpoints (get_project, update_project, get_projects_organisation). The vulnerability has publicly available exploit code and affects the project management functionality with limited confidentiality and integrity impact. The vendor did not respond to early disclosure notification.
RemediationAI
Immediate patching is not available due to vendor non-responsiveness. Organizations using SuperAGI must implement compensating controls: (1) Restrict network access to SuperAGI deployments using firewall rules or reverse proxy authentication to limit exposure to trusted IP ranges or VPN-connected users only - this reduces the remote attack surface but does not eliminate the authorization bypass itself. (2) Implement application-level authorization auditing by monitoring and logging all requests to the three affected endpoints (get_project, update_project, get_projects_organisation) to detect suspicious access patterns such as a single user accessing many project IDs outside their expected usage. (3) Enforce strict role-based access control (RBAC) through a Web Application Firewall (WAF) or API gateway that validates project ownership before allowing the request to reach SuperAGI - this requires custom rules mapping user identities to authorized project IDs. (4) Upgrade to a patched version if the vendor releases one; monitor the VulDB and GitHub repository for security updates. (5) Consider migrating to alternative frameworks if SuperAGI updates are not forthcoming within your organization's risk tolerance window. Each mitigation has trade-offs: network restriction impacts usability and legitimate remote access, WAF rules require manual maintenance as projects are created, and migration carries operational overhead.

Technical ContextAI · show details
SuperAGI is a framework for building autonomous AI agents. The vulnerability resides in the project controller module (superagi/controllers/project.py), specifically in three endpoint handlers that manage project operations. The root cause is CWE-639 (Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key), indicating that the application fails to properly validate whether the authenticated user has permission to access or modify the requested project resource. The affected endpoints likely use user-supplied project identifiers without sufficient authorization checks, allowing an attacker with valid credentials to enumerate, read, or modify projects they do not own or have access to.
