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 | The vulnerable PreviewReport endpoint (GET /reports/{id}/preview) must be present in the deployed codebase, meaning the fix commit 2b2eb0cf must not have been applied. No authentication, project membership, or role assignment is required - the [AllowAnonymous] attribute bypasses all policy checks. The Reconmap API must be network-reachable by the attacker; internet-facing deployments have no additional barriers. Sequential integer project IDs serve as the enumeration oracle; 404 responses for absent IDs aid complete enumeration but are not strictly required. Exploitation is limited solely to Reconmap instances; no lateral movement beyond the project and organisation data returned by the endpoint is possible through this vector alone. |
| Impact | The CVSS 4.0 score of 8.7 with vector AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N is consistent with the description: network-accessible, no authentication, no special conditions, confidentiality-only impact. No EPSS score was provided in the input data, so exploitation probability cannot be quantified numerically. The vulnerability has not been added to CISA KEV, and no public exploit code has been identified, meaning exploitation status is 'no public exploit identified at time of analysis.' However, the attack does not require exploit code - sequential HTTP GETs are sufficient - so the practical exploitation barrier is very low and the attack is automatable. The data sensitivity amplifies real-world risk significantly: Reconmap stores penetration-testing engagements, so exposed records may include target system inventories, client business relationships, and engagement scopes that are commercially and operationally sensitive. Organizations running internet-facing Reconmap instances should treat this as a high-priority remediation regardless of the absence of KEV or EPSS data. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An unauthenticated attacker iterates GET /api/reports/1/preview, /api/reports/2/preview, and so on against an internet-facing Reconmap instance; each 200 response returns an HTML page with the project name, description, and client organisation's name, address, and URL, while 404 responses confirm the absence of a given project ID. With a simple script - no credentials, no exploit code, no special tooling - the attacker harvests the complete list of penetration-testing engagements and client records, potentially exposing target identities, engagement scope, and business relationships of all clients on the instance. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Aug 21, 2026
Unauthenticated remote enumeration of all penetration-testing projects and client organisations is possible in Reconmap due to a misapplied [AllowAnonymous] attribute on the report preview endpoint, overriding the application-wide administrator-role policy. Any unauthenticated caller can issue sequential GET requests to /reports/{id}/preview and receive rendered HTML containing project names, descriptions, and linked client organisation names, addresses, and URLs; 404 responses for missing IDs further confirm which project IDs exist, enabling complete database enumeration. No CISA KEV listing or public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, but the trivial attack mechanics - sequential HTTP GETs requiring no credentials or tooling - make exploitation highly accessible to any network-adjacent attacker.
RemediationAI
The upstream fix is confirmed in commit 2b2eb0cf0aa95726b4edd0045f86d2dcdb8de34d, which removes the PreviewReport endpoint and the HTML/TXT report preview feature entirely; upgrade to a release containing this commit or apply the patch directly. If an immediate code update is not feasible, block requests to the path pattern /reports/*/preview at the reverse proxy or WAF layer for all unauthenticated callers - this eliminates the vulnerability without a code change but removes report preview functionality for all users. A minimal code-level workaround is to replace the [AllowAnonymous] attribute on PreviewReport with [Authorize(Roles = 'administrator')], restoring the global policy; this requires recompilation and redeployment and still leaves the sequential-ID enumeration vector intact for authenticated users. The GitHub advisory at https://github.com/reconmap/reconmap/security/advisories/GHSA-mhrh-jfmr-8mmw should be consulted for any further guidance from the maintainers.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Reconmap is an open-source ASP.NET Core penetration-testing management platform. Its global authorization policy in apps/api/app/Program.cs requires an authenticated administrator-role holder for all controllers that do not carry their own attribute. The PreviewReport action in ReportsController.cs carried [AllowAnonymous], which explicitly opts the endpoint out of that fallback policy (CWE-862: Missing Authorization). The action resolved a Project row by the integer path segment id using Entity Framework's FindAsync, then fetched the associated Organisation via the project's ClientId, and rendered both into default-report-template.html using the Scriban templating engine. The template printed project name and description alongside client name, address, and URL. The id parameter maps directly to the auto-increment primary key of the projects table, providing a trivially guessable, enumerable keyspace. The fix confirmed in commit 2b2eb0cf removed the endpoint and the associated HTML/TXT preview feature entirely, also deleting default-report-template.html.

DescriptionCVE.org
Reconmap's API applies a fallback authorization policy in apps/api/app/Program.cs that requires an authenticated user holding the administrator role, so controllers without their own attribute reject anonymous callers. The report preview action in apps/api/app/Controllers/ReportsController.cs carries [AllowAnonymous] and therefore opts out of that policy. PreviewReport loads the Project row named by the id path segment, loads the linked Organisation through the project's ClientId, and renders both into default-report-template.html, which prints the project name and description together with the client organisation's name, address and URL. No authentication, project membership or role check is performed. Because the id is the auto-increment primary key of the project table, an unauthenticated remote caller can walk sequential ids to retrieve the engagement details and client organisation of every project on the instance, and the 404 returned for a missing id reveals which project ids exist. Reconmap stores penetration-testing engagements, so the disclosed descriptions and client records are sensitive by nature.
Executive ViewAI
Reconmap, a penetration-testing project management platform, contains an authentication bypass allowing unauthenticated remote enumeration of all projects and sensitive client information. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the trivial attack mechanics-simple sequential HTTP requests requiring no credentials or tools-make this highly accessible to any network-adjacent attacker. Your organization faces immediate risk of client relationship data exposure and reconnaissance by threat actors.
Implement WAF or firewall rules to block unauthenticated access to /reports/*/preview endpoints; require VPN connectivity or IP whitelisting for all Reconmap access; enable and monitor detailed API audit logs for suspicious enumeration patterns; consider network segmentation to isolate Reconmap instances from untrusted networks until vendor patch is released.
