Lifecycle Timeline
3DescriptionCVE.org
CVAT is an open source interactive video and image annotation tool for computer vision. From 2.17.0 until 2.72.0, a user with the Worker role can use predictable task-based request IDs with the lambda request retrieve and destroy endpoints to view automatic annotation requests for tasks or jobs the user cannot access and cancel requests initiated by other users. This issue is fixed in version 2.72.0.
AnalysisAI
Broken object-level authorization in CVAT's lambda annotation API allows authenticated Worker-role users to exploit predictable task-based request IDs to read automatic annotation requests for tasks they are not permitted to access and to cancel annotation requests submitted by other users. All CVAT deployments running versions 2.17.0 through 2.71.x are affected per cpe:2.3:a:cvat-ai:cvat. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires an active CVAT account with at minimum the Worker role - unauthenticated access is not possible, as the CVSS 4.0 PR:L metric confirms. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 4.0 score of 5.3 (Medium) accurately represents the constrained blast radius: exploitation requires a valid Worker-role credential (PR:L), the confidentiality exposure is limited to lambda request metadata rather than annotation content (VC:L), and the integrity impact is limited to canceling others' annotation jobs (VI:L). … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An authenticated CVAT user with the Worker role constructs or enumerates predictable task-based lambda request IDs - derived from task identifiers the Worker can observe from their own tasks - and issues GET requests to the lambda retrieve endpoint for IDs corresponding to tasks they have no legitimate access to, obtaining annotation request metadata. The attacker then issues DELETE requests to the destroy endpoint using those IDs to cancel in-flight automatic annotation jobs belonging to other teams, disrupting their annotation pipelines. … |
| Remediation | Upgrade CVAT to version 2.72.0 or later, which resolves the authorization flaw as confirmed by the vendor release at https://github.com/cvat-ai/cvat/releases/tag/v2.72.0 and security advisory GHSA-m7p7-6w4m-886p. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
