Information Disclosure in Flowintel via Unauthorized API Access

Vulnerability report for CVE-2026-81819, including description, CVSS score, EPSS score, affected products, exploitability, helpful resources, and attack-flow context.

Assigner: CIRCL

Description

Affected versions of Flowintel expose the /my_assignment/user API endpoint to any authenticated API user. The endpoint accepts a user_id parameter identifying the user whose assignments should be returned, but previously had no role restriction beyond general API authentication. As a result, a lower-privileged authenticated user could potentially query another user’s assignment information by supplying that user’s identifier. The fix changes: method_decorators = [api_required] to: method_decorators = [admin_or_org_admin_required, api_required] so only administrators or organization administrators can perform cross-user assignment queries. Version impacted =>3.3.0

Executive Summary

This vulnerability in Flowintel allows any authenticated user to access another user's assignment information through the /my_assignment/user API endpoint by providing a user_id parameter. The issue stems from insufficient role restrictions beyond basic API authentication.

Detection Guidance

Check for unauthorized access to the /my_assignment/user API endpoint by reviewing logs for requests with user_id parameters from non-admin users. Look for repeated queries to this endpoint by low-privilege users.

Impact Analysis

A lower-privileged authenticated user could view sensitive assignment data belonging to other users, potentially exposing confidential information or violating data privacy expectations.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could lead to unauthorized data exposure, violating principles of data minimization and access control required by GDPR and HIPAA. It may result in non-compliance with privacy regulations.

Mitigation Strategies

Update Flowintel to a version beyond 3.3.0 where the /my_assignment/user endpoint is restricted to admin or organization admin users. Apply the patch from the official repository if not already updated.
