CVE-2026-81182: CWE-639: Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key in Syslifters sysreptor
SysReptor is a fully customizable pentest reporting platform. Prior to 2026.68, an unauthenticated attacker who holds a public read-write note share link can disclose an uploaded file or image from the same project by updating the shared note to reference the target asset filename. The user-controlled reference causes the shared-note authorization logic to treat the asset as permitted, after which the attacker can download it. The attacker must know the asset filename, and the issue does not permit cross-project access. This issue is fixed in version 2026.68.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
SysReptor versions prior to 2026.68 contain an authorization bypass vulnerability (CWE-639) where an unauthenticated attacker holding a public read-write note share link can disclose uploaded files or images within the same project. The attacker achieves this by updating the shared note to reference a target asset filename, causing the authorization logic to incorrectly permit access. Cross-project access is not possible, and knowledge of the asset filename is required. The issue is resolved in version 2026.68.
Potential Impact
An attacker with a public read-write note share link can disclose confidential files or images uploaded to the same project without authentication. This leads to unauthorized information disclosure limited to assets within the project. There is no impact on integrity or availability, and cross-project access is not possible.
Mitigation Recommendations
Upgrade sysreptor to version 2026.68 or later, where this authorization bypass vulnerability is fixed. No other mitigations are indicated by the vendor advisory.
