DescriptionCVE.org

Snipe-IT is an IT asset/license management system. Prior to 8.6.2, POST /api/v1/kits/{kit_id}/licenses checks whether the caller can edit kits but does not authorize access to the referenced license object, allowing a low-privilege user with predefined-kit permissions to bind a license they should not be able to access or manage into a kit. This issue is fixed in version 8.6.2.

AnalysisAI

{kit_id}/licenses allows authenticated low-privilege users to bind arbitrary licenses - including those belonging to other departments or users - into kits they control. The server validates kit-edit permissions but performs no ownership or access check against the referenced license object, a classic IDOR pattern (CWE-639). …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Obtain low-privilege Snipe-IT account with kit-edit role
Delivery
Enumerate valid license IDs via permitted API endpoints
Exploit
Craft POST /api/v1/kits/{kit_id}/licenses with target license_id
Execution
Bypass missing object-level authorization check
Impact
Associate unauthorized license with attacker-controlled kit

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires an authenticated Snipe-IT account that has been explicitly granted predefined-kit (kit-edit) permissions - unauthenticated or zero-permission users cannot trigger this vulnerability. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 score of 5.3 (Medium) accurately reflects the constrained real-world impact: exploitation requires network reachability, low complexity, and low-privilege authentication (PR:L), with partial confidentiality and integrity impact limited to the vulnerable system and no scope change. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An authenticated Snipe-IT user holding only kit-edit permissions sends a crafted POST request to /api/v1/kits/{kit_id}/licenses supplying a license_id belonging to a software license managed by another department. The server validates the caller's kit permission, finds it sufficient, and creates the association without checking license-level ACLs. …
Remediation Upgrade to Snipe-IT version 8.6.2 or later; this is the vendor-confirmed fix as documented in the official release at https://github.com/grokability/snipe-it/releases/tag/v8.6.2, with the specific remediation commit at https://github.com/grokability/snipe-it/commit/0d870d540d27107634f3134e0e7f106b3faa6992. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
