AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Remote low-complexity broken-authZ on a query endpoint primarily leaks config (C:H); 'escalate privileges' implies an existing foothold so PR:L, with only secondary integrity (I:L) and no availability impact.

SmartAdmin v3.30.0 contains an authorization flaw in the configuration query endpoint. This allows a remote attacker to escalate privileges.
AnalysisAI
An authorization bypass in the SmartAdmin (1024-lab/smart-admin) v3.30.0 configuration query endpoint allows a remote attacker to read configuration data they are not entitled to access and to escalate privileges within the application. The vendor scores this as maximum severity (CVSS 9.8, AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/C:H/I:H/A:H), but the independent assessment rates it CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:L/A:N, indicating that realistic exploitation likely requires an existing low-privilege session and that the dominant impact is disclosure of sensitive configuration content rather than full system takeover. …
