Executive Summary

CVE-2026-77795 is an improper authorization vulnerability in Dromara RuoYi-Vue-Plus up to version 5.6.2. It affects multiple workflow controller endpoints due to coarse-grained permission checks using @SaCheckPermission annotations. These checks verify role or menu permissions but fail to enforce data ownership validation at the service layer.

Detection Guidance

Check for endpoints in RuoYi-Vue-Plus controllers like FlwInstanceController, FlwDefinitionController, FlwCategoryController, FlwSpelController, and TestLeaveController. Look for requests manipulating identifiers such as businessId, instanceId, or definitionId without proper ownership validation.

Impact Analysis

Authenticated users with specific permissions can manipulate identifiers like businessId or instanceId to access, modify, or delete data belonging to other users within the same tenant. This could lead to unauthorized data exposure, modification, or deletion, effectively enabling horizontal privilege escalation.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could violate data protection requirements under GDPR and HIPAA by enabling unauthorized access to sensitive user data. It undermines principles of least privilege, data integrity, and confidentiality, potentially leading to compliance breaches and regulatory penalties.

Mitigation Strategies

Update RuoYi-Vue-Plus to the latest version beyond 5.6.2. Implement fine-grained data ownership checks in service-layer methods. Replace @SaCheckPermission with role-based checks that verify resource ownership before processing requests.
