Description

CVE-2026-64865 is a race condition vulnerability in QuantumNous new-api, an AI asset management system. Before version 1.0.0-rc.16, concurrent PUT requests to update user data could cause improper synchronization in quota management, allowing authenticated users to artificially maintain a higher cached quota. This issue is fixed in version 1.0.0-rc.16.

Technical Analysis

QuantumNous new-api versions prior to 1.0.0-rc.16 suffer from a race condition (CWE-362) during concurrent execution of PUT /api/user/self requests that update language or sidebar_modules. The controller calls User.Update and updateUserCache performs a full Redis HSet write to user:.Quota, which can overwrite concurrent HINCRBY deductions. This improper synchronization allows an authenticated user to keep their cached quota artificially high. The vulnerability is resolved in version 1.0.0-rc.16.

Potential Impact

An authenticated user can exploit this race condition to maintain an artificially high cached quota by causing concurrent updates to overwrite quota deductions. This could lead to quota mismanagement and potential abuse of system resources.

Mitigation Recommendations

Upgrade QuantumNous new-api to version 1.0.0-rc.16 or later, where this race condition vulnerability has been fixed.
