CVE-2026-56720: Missing Authorization in owen2345 CamaleonCMS
CamaleonCMS version 2.9.2 and earlier contains a missing authorization vulnerability in the admin users controller that allows any authenticated user to access any other user's profile data by supplying an arbitrary user ID parameter. Attackers can send a GET request to the admin profile endpoint with an enumerable sequential integer user ID to disclose profile information of any user, including administrators, due to the profile action being excluded from the role validation filter with no compensating ownership check.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-56720 describes a missing authorization vulnerability in CamaleonCMS up to version 2.9.2. Authenticated users can supply arbitrary user ID parameters to the admin profile endpoint, bypassing role validation filters and ownership checks. This enables disclosure of profile information for any user, including privileged accounts, through sequential integer user IDs in GET requests.
Potential Impact
The vulnerability allows authenticated users to access sensitive profile information of other users, including administrators, which could lead to information disclosure and potential further attacks based on exposed data. The CVSS 4.0 score is 5.3 (medium severity), reflecting network attack vector, low complexity, no privileges required beyond authentication, and low impact on confidentiality.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, restrict authenticated user access to the admin profile endpoint or implement compensating controls such as ownership checks and role validation filters on the profile action.
