Description

Snipe-IT is an IT asset/license management system. Prior to 8.6.3, a restricted user can request /api/v1/users/{target_id}/eulas to obtain another user's randomized EULA filename and then download the signed file through /account/stored-eula-file/{filename}. The primary /stored-eula-file/{filename} route correctly denies access, but app/Http/Controllers/ProfileController.php and app/Http/Controllers/Api/UsersController.php do not consistently enforce ownership and target-user authorization. This issue is fixed in version 8.6.3.

Executive Summary

This vulnerability in Snipe-IT before version 8.6.3 allows a restricted user to access another user's EULA file through a combination of information disclosure and IDOR. The attacker first requests a target user's EULA filename via an API endpoint and then downloads the file using a profile route that fails to enforce proper authorization checks.

Detection Guidance

Check Snipe-IT logs for unauthorized access attempts to /api/v1/users/{target_id}/eulas or /account/stored-eula-file/{filename}. Monitor for repeated requests to these endpoints from restricted users. Use network traffic analysis to detect unusual downloads of EULA files not belonging to the requesting user.

Impact Analysis

If you use Snipe-IT versions before 8.6.3, an attacker with restricted access could steal your EULA files, which may contain sensitive or confidential information. This could lead to privacy breaches or unauthorized access to user data.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could violate GDPR or HIPAA by exposing personal or sensitive data through unauthorized access to EULA files. Compliance requires protecting user data, and this flaw undermines those safeguards.

Mitigation Strategies

Upgrade Snipe-IT to version 8.6.3 or later immediately. Review and restrict access to API endpoints /api/v1/users/{target_id}/eulas and /account/stored-eula-file/{filename}. Audit all EULA file downloads for unauthorized access in logs.
