Description
In RuoYi-Cloud-Plus <= 2.6.2 in the ruoyi-workflow module, multiple core task APIs in FlwTaskController lack permission annotations, and the Service layer does not verify whether the current user is the task handler/related user. Authenticated low-privileged remote attackers can read sensitive workflow task details (/task/getTask/{taskId}) and trigger unauthorized workflow executions (/task/startWorkFlow).

AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability originates from missing permission annotations on several core task APIs in the FlwTaskController and from a Service layer that does not verify whether the current user is the task handler or a related user, allowing authenticated low-privileged remote attackers to read sensitive workflow task details through /task/getTask/{taskId} and to trigger unauthorized workflow executions via /task/startWorkFlow.

Affected Systems

Versions of RuoYi-Cloud-Plus up to and including 2.6.2 within the ruoyi-workflow module are affected; all deployments that expose the FlwTaskController and its associated request paths are vulnerable.

Risk and Exploitability

The attack vector requires an authenticated account with low privileges but does not require escalation; this is inferred from the description. Once authenticated, the attacker can read internal workflow metadata and initiate workflow instances that could alter business processes or expose confidential data. No public CVSS score is provided in the advisory, the EPSS is not available, and the KEV catalog does not list this vulnerability. Based on the available information, it is inferred that the risk could be moderate to high due to the potential for data leakage and unauthorized process execution without privilege escalation.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade RuoYi-Cloud-Plus to a version newer than 2.6.2 or apply any official patches that add missing permission checks to the FlwTaskController
  • Add explicit permission annotations or other authorization controls to all task‑related endpoints so that only users with the correct role or task ownership can access them
  • Modify the service layer to enforce ownership checks before performing operations on workflow tasks
  • If upgrading is not immediately possible, restrict low‑privileged accounts from accessing the affected endpoints via network firewalls or application‑level access controls
