Executive Summary

CVE-2026-108825 is a privilege escalation flaw in RuoYi version 4.8.3. It allows an authenticated low-privilege user to gain admin access by manipulating their role key from 'common' to 'common,admin' via the POST /system/role/authDataScope endpoint. After login, Shiro treats the user as an admin, bypassing role-based access controls.

Detection Guidance

Check for unauthorized role key modifications in RuoYi 4.8.3 by inspecting POST requests to /system/role/authDataScope. Look for roleKey values containing comma-separated roles like 'common,admin'. Verify if low-privilege users gain admin privileges without proper validation.

Impact Analysis

An attacker with a low-privilege account could escalate privileges to admin, enabling unauthorized actions like creating database tables, modifying schemas, or accessing sensitive endpoints. This could lead to data breaches, system compromise, or compliance violations.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could violate compliance requirements by allowing unauthorized access to sensitive data or systems. GDPR and HIPAA mandate strict access controls and data protection; privilege escalation risks unauthorized data exposure or modification, leading to potential legal and regulatory penalties.

Mitigation Strategies

Upgrade RuoYi to a patched version beyond 4.8.3. Implement strict input validation for roleKey parameters to prevent comma-separated role injection. Restrict system:role:edit permissions to trusted users only.
