DescriptionCVE.org

Snipe-IT versions 8.2.0 through 8.6.x (fixed in 8.7.0) contain an incorrect authorization flaw in app/Http/Controllers/Users/UsersController::update(). The single-user edit route assigned the activated field from the request payload before evaluating the canEditAuthFields authorization gate, so an authenticated non-admin user holding the users.edit permission in the target's company scope can submit a full valid PUT request to /users/{id} and toggle the activated flag on any user, including admin and superuser accounts. Deactivating an admin locks that account out of the application until another admin or superuser re-enables it. Only the activated field is affected; username, email, password and permissions remain protected by the gate, no data is disclosed, and the API (Api\UsersController::update) and bulk-edit paths are not affected.

AnalysisAI

Incorrect authorization in Snipe-IT 8.2.0-8.6.x lets any authenticated user holding the users.edit permission toggle the activated flag on arbitrary accounts - including admin and superuser accounts - by submitting a complete PUT request to the single-user web UI edit route /users/{id}. Because UsersController::update() assigned the activated field from the request payload before evaluating the canEditAuthFields authorization gate, the unauthorized write persisted through to save(); deactivating a targeted admin account locks it out of the application until re-enabled by another privileged user. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires an authenticated session with the users.edit permission granted within the target user's company scope - a permission commonly delegated to IT managers or helpdesk staff. … 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) scores 5.3 - medium severity - with no confidentiality impact and limited integrity and availability impact, accurately reflecting that only a single boolean field is unprotected. … 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 Upgrade Snipe-IT to version 8.7.0 or later, which moves the activated field assignment inside the canEditAuthFields authorization gate. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
