Snipe-IT Multi-Tenant Isolation Bypass via Bulk Asset Update

Publication date: 2026-08-19

Last updated on: 2026-08-19

Assigner: GitHub, Inc.

Description
Snipe-IT is an IT asset/license management system. Prior to 8.4.1, a non-superadmin can use app/Http/Controllers/Assets/BulkAssetsController.php update() to submit company_id directly without Company::getIdForCurrentUser(), allowing assets to be moved across company boundaries and breaking multi-tenant isolation. This issue is fixed in version 8.4.1.

Executive Summary

This vulnerability in Snipe-IT allows a non-superadmin user to bypass multi-tenant isolation by submitting a company_id directly in the BulkAssetsController update method without proper validation. Normally, the system should use Company::getIdForCurrentUser() to restrict access to the user's own company, but this check was missing, enabling unauthorized asset transfers across company boundaries.

Detection Guidance

Check Snipe-IT version with: grep -r "version" /path/to/snipe-it/config/app.php. If version is below 8.4.1, the system is vulnerable. Review BulkAssetsController.php for direct company_id assignment without Company::getIdForCurrentUser() validation.

Impact Analysis

An attacker with non-superadmin access could move assets between companies, potentially accessing or modifying data they shouldn't. This could lead to data leaks, unauthorized changes, or disruption of asset tracking across different tenants in the system.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could violate compliance requirements that mandate strict data isolation between tenants or organizations, such as GDPR's data segregation principles or HIPAA's access controls. Unauthorized data access or modification risks regulatory penalties and loss of certification.

Mitigation Strategies

Upgrade Snipe-IT to version 8.4.1 or later. If immediate upgrade is not possible, restrict non-superadmin user permissions to prevent unauthorized company_id modifications. Review asset assignments for unauthorized cross-company moves.
