CVE-2026-90768

CAPEv2 through commit 471ee4b REST API Task Endpoints Missing Ownership Check

Published Sep 13, 2026 CVSS 4.0 · 8.6 High EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed

Description

CAPEv2 through commit 471ee4b fails to validate task ownership in REST API endpoints, allowing authenticated users to read and delete analyses submitted by other users. Attackers can enumerate all tasks in the system and delete arbitrary analyses by sending requests to task view and delete endpoints without ownership verification.

Analysis

Technical impact

CAPEv2 has a flaw where its REST API does not verify ownership of analysis tasks. As a result, any authenticated user can read or delete tasks created by other users. This flaw permits attackers to enumerate all tasks and remove valuable analysis results, compromising the confidentiality of analytic data and the integrity of the analysis repository.

Affected Systems

CAPEv2 from kevoreilly is affected. All installations that include commit 471ee4b or earlier and have not applied the subsequent fix that enforces ownership checks are vulnerable. No specific release numbers are listed in the data provided.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 8.6 indicates a high severity, and the EPSS score is < 1%. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Attack requires that the user is authenticated; a legitimate user can simply send requests to the task view and delete endpoints to enumerate and delete tasks. Because the check on ownership is missing, the impact is direct and can be executed without additional privileges.

Affected Products

Default status is the baseline for the product, each version can override it (e.g. patched versions marked unaffected).

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

Upgrade CAPEv2 to a commit newer than 471ee4b or apply the official patch provided by the maintainers.
If an upgrade is not immediately possible, restrict API access to trusted users or insert an additional access‑control layer that validates task ownership before processing view or delete requests.
Continuously monitor API logs for abnormal task enumeration or deletion activity and revoke credentials exhibiting suspicious behavior.
