Lifecycle Timeline
3Description
pyLoad is a free and open-source download manager written in Python. Prior to 0.5.0b3.dev97, the /json/package_order, /json/link_order, and /json/abort_link WebUI JSON endpoints enforce weaker permissions than the core API methods they invoke. This allows authenticated low-privileged users to execute MODIFY operations that should be denied by pyLoad's own permission model. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.5.0b3.dev97.
Analysis
Authenticated privilege escalation in pyLoad's WebUI JSON endpoints (/json/package_order, /json/link_order, /json/abort_link) allows low-privileged users to perform unauthorized MODIFY operations that violate the application's permission model. Versions prior to 0.5.0b3.dev97 are affected; the vulnerability requires valid authentication but enables privilege boundary bypass without requiring elevated credentials.
