Source: CVE Database V5
Vendor/Project: alextselegidis
Product: easyappointments

Description

Easy!Appointments is a self hosted appointment scheduler. Versions prior to 1.6.0 correctly filter provider-scoped appointments in the `appointments/search` response, proving that provider isolation is an intended security boundary. However, the direct mutation endpoints `appointments/store` and `appointments/update` only check generic appointment privileges and never verify that the submitted `id_users_provider` belongs to the current session. A normal authenticated provider can inject new appointments into another provider's schedule via `store`, or reassign existing appointments into a foreign provider's calendar via `update`. The `store` path contains an additional write-before-crash bug: the unauthorized row is committed to the database before the controller crashes on a type error, so the attacker receives an error response while the foreign appointment is already persisted. Version 1.6.0 patches the issue.

Technical Analysis

Easy!Appointments is a self-hosted appointment scheduler. In versions before 1.6.0, the application correctly filters provider-scoped appointments in search responses, indicating provider isolation as a security boundary. However, the direct mutation endpoints 'appointments/store' and 'appointments/update' only check generic appointment privileges without verifying that the 'id_users_provider' in the request belongs to the authenticated session. This allows an authenticated provider to inject new appointments into another provider's schedule or reassign existing appointments to a foreign provider's calendar. The 'store' endpoint also contains a bug where unauthorized database writes occur before a type error causes the controller to crash, resulting in the unauthorized appointment being persisted despite an error response. The issue is fixed in version 1.6.0.

Potential Impact

An authenticated provider can bypass intended authorization controls to create or modify appointments in other providers' schedules. This leads to unauthorized data manipulation and potential disruption of appointment management. The vulnerability does not affect confidentiality or availability but impacts data integrity and authorization boundaries.

Mitigation Recommendations

Upgrade to Easy!Appointments version 1.6.0 or later, where this authorization bypass vulnerability is fixed. No other mitigations are indicated in the vendor advisory. Patch status is not explicitly confirmed in the advisory, but version 1.6.0 is stated as the fixed version.
