DescriptionCVE.org

Peppermint through 0.5.5 contains an authorization bypass vulnerability in the GET /api/v1/auth/user/:id/logout endpoint that allows authenticated attackers to delete sessions for any user by supplying arbitrary user IDs. Attackers can forcibly log out any user including administrators by calling the logout handler with another user's ID, since the endpoint performs no authorization checks to verify the caller owns the target account.

AnalysisAI

Session invalidation without authorization in Peppermint through 0.5.5 allows any authenticated user to forcibly terminate the active sessions of any other account - including administrators - by supplying a victim's user ID to the GET /api/v1/auth/user/:id/logout endpoint, which performs no ownership check. The flaw (CWE-639) is traceable to the logout handler in apps/api/src/controllers/auth.ts and is documented in GitHub issue #529. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Requires a valid authenticated session in the Peppermint instance (PR:L - any account, including the lowest-privilege role, suffices). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L) accurately captures the threat profile: low-complexity network exploitation requiring only a valid low-privilege account, with impact confined to session availability at the vulnerable system level. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis - no fixed release version appears in the available references or CPE data. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
