Description
Open Event Server through 1.19.1 contains a missing authentication vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to export the complete member roster of any group, including email addresses, names, join dates, and roles, by submitting requests to the group followers CSV export endpoint which lacks any authentication decorator. Attackers can enumerate sequential group IDs via brute-force, trigger an export via the unauthenticated POST endpoint, then poll the unauthenticated task status endpoint until completion to retrieve a download URL containing the full member CSV.

Impact

Open Event Server through version 1.19.1 contains a missing authentication check on the CSV export endpoint that allows an unauthenticated user to request a full download of a group’s member roster. This export returns email addresses, names, join dates, and role information for every member. The flaw is identified as CWE‑306, missing authentication, and results in a data exposure vulnerability that compromises the confidentiality of sensitive user data.

Affected Systems

The vulnerability affects the Open Event Server product from the fossasia vendor, specifically all releases up to and including 1.19.1. Any instance running this software and exposing the default REST API endpoint may be susceptible unless the endpoint is secured by additional authentication controls.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 8.7 indicates a high severity risk, but the EPSS score of less than 1% suggests that real‑world exploitation is unlikely at present. The attacker would need only network access to the server and ability to guess or brute‑force valid group identifiers. Once an export is initiated, the attacker polls the task status endpoint until the CSV download URL is available. Because the endpoint imposes no authentication, the entire process can be automated from any location that can reach the API. The vulnerability is not yet listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Overall, the combination of a high severity rating and low exploitation probability results in a moderate‑to‑high risk that must be mitigated promptly.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade Open Event Server to the latest patched release that secures the CSV export endpoint.
  • Restrict the CSV export route by enabling or configuring authentication and authorization checks so that only privileged users can request roster data.
  • Monitor API traffic for repeated requests to the /group/export endpoint and block suspicious activity or rate‑limit the endpoint to reduce the opportunity for automated exploitation.
