Technical Analysis

CVE-2026-45281 is an authorization bypass vulnerability in Nextcloud Server's calendar backend affecting versions 32.0.0 through 32.0.8 and 33.0.0 through 33.0.2. The flaw allows an authenticated attacker, who knows the principal URL of another user, to bypass authorization controls and gain full access to that user's calendar data, including the ability to view and modify it. This vulnerability is categorized under CWE-639 (Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key).

Potential Impact

An attacker with valid authentication and knowledge of another user's principal URL can fully access and modify that user's calendar data.

The CVSS 3.1 base score is 8.1, indicating high severity with network attack vector, low attack complexity, and no user interaction required.

Mitigation Recommendations
