AI-suggested

Until an official fix is available, avoid using the restore endpoint with untrusted or unverified backup archives. Limit superuser access to trusted personnel only to reduce risk.

Description

Snipe-IT versions before 8.7.0 wipe the database before validating the uploaded backup archive in the restore endpoint. Superusers uploading corrupted or invalid zip files trigger permanent data loss with no recovery path or rollback mechanism.

Impact

Successful exploitation results in permanent loss of the database contents due to improper cleanup on thrown exceptions during the restore process. This affects data integrity and availability, with no recovery or rollback options, potentially causing significant operational disruption.
