AI-suggested

The primary mitigation is to upgrade all Rallly instances to version 4.5.4 or later, where the authorization flaw has been fixed by implementing proper ownership verification before allowing participant deletions. Organizations should audit current poll management permissions and restrict deletion capabilities to poll owners or designated administrators only. Implementing multi-factor authentication (MFA) can reduce the risk of compromised accounts being used to exploit this vulnerability. Monitoring and logging deletion events can help detect suspicious activity. Additionally, organizations should educate users about the importance of safeguarding credentials and promptly apply security patches. For environments where immediate upgrade is not possible, applying web application firewalls (WAFs) with rules to detect and block unauthorized deletion requests based on participant IDs may provide temporary protection. Regular security assessments of collaboration tools should be conducted to identify similar authorization issues.

Description

Rallly is an open-source scheduling and collaboration tool. Prior to version 4.5.4, an insecure direct object reference (IDOR) vulnerability allows any authenticated user to delete arbitrary participants from polls without ownership verification. The endpoint relies solely on a participant ID to authorize deletions, enabling attackers to remove other users (including poll owners) from polls. This impacts the integrity and availability of poll participation data. This issue has been patched in version 4.5.4.
