AI Analysis

Impact

Admidio versions 4.3.2 through 4.3.17 and 5.0.0 before 5.0.15 contain a broken access control flaw that allows organization administrators to assign users to roles in other organizations. By crafting a request to members_assignment.php with a role UUID that belongs to a different organization, an attacker can gain privileged membership, log into that organization, and modify its user profiles. The vulnerability stems from CWE‑639, which involves improper verification of authorization for a privileged operation.

Affected Systems

The affected product is Admidio, marked as Admidio:admidio. Affected releases include all editions from 4.3.2 to 4.3.17 and the 5.0.0 series up to but not including 5.0.15. No further vendor or version details are provided beyond these ranges.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 8.5 indicates high severity. The EPSS score is not available, and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalogue. Based on the description, the likely attack vector is a web request to members_assignment.php that includes a foreign role UUID; the flaw allows escalation to privileged access within the targeted organization.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade Admidio to version 4.3.18 or later, or 5.0.15 or later, which contain the access‑control fix.
  • If an upgrade is delayed, restrict role‑administrator privileges to the organization to which the administrator belongs, preventing cross‑organization role assignments.
  • Implement a temporary check in members_assignment.php that verifies the role UUID belongs to the requesting organization and rejects any foreign UUIDs until the official patch is applied.
