AI-suggested
A fix is available in snipe-it version 8.7.0. Users should upgrade to version 8.7.0 or later to ensure proper enforcement of per-instance FMCS scoping at the policy layer. Until upgraded, users should review and restrict assets.audit permissions carefully to minimize risk. Patch status is confirmed by the affectedVersions field indicating versions before 8.7.0 are vulnerable.
Description
CVE-2026-86752 is a medium severity vulnerability in grokability's snipe-it software versions before 8.7.0. The issue involves incorrect authorization where per-instance FMCS scoping is not enforced at the policy layer in asset audit endpoints. Instead, the system relies only on query-layer filtering. This flaw allows attackers with valid sessions and assets.audit permissions to write audit log entries against assets belonging to other companies if the query-layer scope is bypassed or altered.
Impact
The vulnerability allows an attacker with legitimate session credentials and assets.audit permissions to write audit log entries for assets belonging to other companies. This could lead to unauthorized modification of audit logs, potentially affecting data integrity and audit reliability. There is no indication of privilege escalation beyond the assets.audit permission or direct data disclosure. No known exploits are reported in the wild.
