Description
MinDoc through 2.2-beta.2 contains an insecure direct object reference vulnerability in DocumentController.Content that allows authenticated users to read documents from unauthorized books.

AI Analysis

Impact

MinDoc versions up to 2.2-beta.2 contain a direct object reference flaw in the DocumentController.Content endpoint that permits any authenticated user to read files from books to which the user does not belong. By supplying a book identifier and iterating sequential document IDs, attackers can retrieve Markdown and HTML payloads stored in private books, exposing sensitive information to unprivileged personnel.

Affected Systems

The vulnerability exists in the mindoc-org MinDoc product, specifically in releases 2.2-beta.2 and earlier. All deployments running that version are affected until a patch is applied to the DocumentController or the associated routing logic.

Risk and Exploitability

The flaw receives a CVSS score of 7.1, indicating a high potential for significant impact on confidentiality. The EPSS score is < 1%, indicating a very low but nonzero probability of exploitation, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Exploitation requires an authenticated user with any role on the platform; the attacker does not need elevated privileges beyond a standard user account and can enumerate document IDs to access content across books.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade MinDoc to the latest version that includes the fix for the IDOR issue.
  • Apply a temporary access control change to revoke the ability for non-observer roles to query the Content API endpoint.
  • Audit the /api/:key/content/:id endpoint to ensure no other IDOR paths remain and monitor access logs for anomalous document ID access patterns.
