Snipe-IT is an IT asset/license management system. Prior to version 8.6.1, Snipe-IT S3 signature image retrieval lacks authorization before temporary URL. On S3-backed deployments, authenticated users who know a signature filename can obtain a 5-minute signed S3 URL because the S3 branch returns before the `authorize()` call used by the local-file branch. Version 8.6.1 contains a patch.

Snipe-IT is an IT asset/license management system. In versions prior to 8.6.0, a user with only users.edit can send a PATCH to /api/v1/users/{their_own_id} and grant themselves any permission except admin and superuser — for example `assets.view`, `assets.create`, `reports.view`, import, etc. The issue is patched in version 8.6.0.

Snipe-IT is an IT asset/license management system. A vulnerability in versions prior to 8.6.0 allows a non-admin user holding only the granular `users.edit` permission to lock every admin out of the instance by editing the `activated` flag (which determines whether or not a user can login) and the `ldap_import` flag, which determines whether or not the user can request a password reset. Version 8.6.0 contains a patch.

Snipe-IT versions prior to 8.4.1 contain an open redirect vulnerability (CWE-601) that allows attackers to redirect users to malicious websites by exploiting an unvalidated HTTP Referer header stored in a session variable. This issue is resolved in version 8.4.1. The vulnerability has a medium severity with a CVSS score of 5.9.

Snipe-IT is an IT asset/license management system. Prior to 8.4.1, aAn authenticated user with only users.edit permission can escalate their own privileges to admin by sending a PATCH request to /api/v1/users/{id} with permissions[admin]=1. The API controller only strips the superuser key from the permissions array, allowing admin and all other permission keys to be set by any user who can update users. This vulnerability is fixed in 8.4.1.

CVE-2026-44831 is a medium severity cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability affecting Snipe-IT versions prior to 8.4.1. The issue arises from improper neutralization of input in the notes column visible to users with component view access, allowing injection of malicious scripts. This vulnerability has been fixed in version 8.4.1. The CVSS score is 4.8, reflecting a low attack complexity and limited privileges required, but requiring user interaction. No known exploits are reported in the wild.

Snipe-IT versions prior to 8.3.7 contain sensitive user attributes related to account privileges that are insufficiently protected against mass assignment. An authenticated, low-privileged user can craft a malicious API request to modify restricted fields of another user account, including the Super Admin account. By changing the email address of the Super Admin and triggering a password reset, an attacker can fully take over the Super Admin account, resulting in complete administrative control of the Snipe-IT instance.
