Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
OpenProject is open-source, web-based project management software. Prior to 17.3.2 and 17.4.0, a Missing Authorization vulnerability exists in OpenProject's CostReportsController. The rename and update actions allow any authenticated user to modify the name, filters, and grouping of any Public cost report in the system without verifying ownership or permission level. An attacker who discovers or guesses a public report's numeric ID can rename or overwrite its filter configuration without any warning to the report's owner. This vulnerability is fixed in 17.3.2 and 17.4.0.
AnalysisAI
Missing authorization in OpenProject's CostReportsController allows any authenticated user to rename or overwrite the filter and grouping configuration of any Public cost report system-wide, bypassing ownership checks entirely. All OpenProject deployments running versions prior to 17.3.2 and 17.4.0 are affected. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires a valid authenticated OpenProject session with any privilege level (PR:L) - a standard user account with no administrative rights is sufficient. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS base score of 6.5 (Medium) with vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N accurately captures the risk profile. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An authenticated OpenProject user - for example, a low-privilege team member or a contractor with a standard account - enumerates public cost report IDs by incrementing numeric values in the application URL or API. Upon finding a valid report ID, the attacker sends a crafted POST request to the CostReportsController's rename or update action, substituting arbitrary filter parameters and a new report name. … |
| Remediation | Upgrade OpenProject to version 17.3.2 (stable branch) or 17.4.0 (next branch), both of which contain the authorization fix as confirmed by the vendor. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
