Lifecycle Timeline
8DescriptionGitHub Advisory
Movary is a self hosted web app to track and rate a user's watched movies. Prior to version 0.71.1, an ordinary authenticated user can access the user-management endpoints /settings/users and use them to enumerate all users and create a new administrator account. This happens because the route definitions do not enforce admin-only middleware, and the controller-level authorization check uses a broken boolean condition. As a result, any user with a valid web session cookie can reach functionality that should be restricted to administrators. Version 0.71.1 patches the issue.
AnalysisAI
Privilege escalation in Movary (self-hosted movie tracking app) versions before 0.71.1 allows any authenticated user to create administrator accounts and access user-management functions. The vulnerability stems from missing middleware enforcement and a broken boolean condition in authorization checks for /settings/users endpoints. …
