How the CVE Works:
CVE-2025-47226 is an authorization bypass vulnerability in Snipe-IT versions before 8.1.0. The flaw allows unauthorized users to access sensitive asset information due to improper validation of user permissions. Attackers exploit weak endpoint access controls, enabling them to retrieve or modify asset data without proper credentials. The vulnerability stems from missing role-based checks in API endpoints, allowing low-privileged or unauthenticated sessions to interact with restricted data.
DailyCVE Form:
Platform: Snipe-IT
Version: < 8.1.0
Vulnerability: Auth Bypass
Severity: Critical
Date: 06/03/2025
Prediction: Patch by 07/15/2025
What Undercode Say:
Analytics:
- Exploitability: High (remote, low complexity)
- Attack Vector: API endpoints
- MITRE ATT&CK: Tactic-TA0006 (Credential Access)
Exploit Commands:
1. Enumerate endpoints:
curl -X GET http://target/api/v1/assets -H "X-Forwarded-For: 127.0.0.1"
2. Bypass auth via IDOR:
curl -X POST http://target/api/v1/assets/delete -d '{"id":"123"}'
Protection Commands:
1. Patch upgrade:
composer update snipe/snipe-it --with-dependencies
2. Nginx rule to restrict API access:
location /api/v1 { allow 192.168.1.0/24; deny all; }
Detection Code (Python):
import requests response = requests.get("http://target/api/v1/assets", verify=False) if "unauthorized" not in response.text: print("Vulnerable to CVE-2025-47226")
Mitigation Steps:
1. Update to Snipe-IT 8.1.0+.
2. Implement JWT token validation.
3. Audit API endpoints for missing RBAC.
