Description
Incorrect authorization in the library-query execution endpoint in Lowcoder version, up to and including 2.4.10, allows an authenticated administrator or developer in one organization to execute a library query belonging to another organization via a crafted request containing the victim library-query identifier.

Score: 8.8 High
EPSS: < 1% Very Low

Impact: Privilege Escalation

AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability resides in Lowcoder’s library-query execution endpoint where incorrect authorization checks allow an authenticated administrator or developer within one organization to invoke a library query that belongs to another organization simply by supplying the victim query’s identifier. An attacker who already possesses a valid account with administrative or developer rights can therefore execute arbitrary queries outside their permitted scope, potentially accessing sensitive data or modifying records in other organizations. This flaw effectively bypasses the application’s intended access controls and is a privilege‑escalation vector that can compromise confidentiality and integrity across organizational boundaries.

Affected Systems

The affected product is Lowcoder, covering all releases up to and including version 2.4.10. Users running these or earlier versions are subject to the flaw, regardless of the environment in which the application is hosted. No other vendors or products are listed as impacted.

Risk and Exploitability

The EPSS score is < 1% and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, so the assessed exploitation probability remains unclear. The flaw requires an authenticated user with administrative or developer privileges, meaning that normal users cannot exploit it. However, once a privileged user’s credentials are compromised or if a legitimate administrator misconfigures role boundaries, an attacker can craft a request containing a target organization’s library‑query identifier to exercise the unintended access. The CVSS score of 8.8 indicates high severity, but the ability to execute queries across organizations is a significant attack surface, especially in shared tenant deployments.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade to the latest release of Lowcoder that includes the authorization fix (consult vendor release notes for specific version details).
  • Audit and restrict administrator and developer role assignments so that users can access only the libraries of the organizations they manage; revoke any extraneous privileges that allow cross‑organization query execution.
  • Apply network‑level controls such as firewall rules or VPN restrictions to limit exposure of the library‑query execution endpoint to trusted internal networks and enforce multi‑factor authentication for all roles capable of invoking library queries.
