{"id":"CVE-2026-81729","summary":"Dolibarr before 23.0.4 Incorrect Authorization on REST API Document Deletion","details":"Dolibarr before 23.0.4 authorizes REST API document deletion against the wrong permission. Documents::delete() in htdocs/api/class/api_documents.class.php calls dol_check_secure_access_document() with the mode argument 'read' when handling DELETE /api/index.php/documents, while the sibling builddoc() path passes 'write', the correct mode for an operation that modifies stored data. An authenticated API user who holds only a read permission for a document-bearing module, for example societe:lire or facture:lire, and no create, write, delete or admin permission, therefore passes the check and can permanently delete that module's documents: third-party files, invoices, orders, proposals, project files and generated PDFs, with no recovery path. The call site is htdocs/api/class/api_documents.class.php:1276 in 23.0.3 and passes 'write' from 23.0.4 onward.","modified":"2026-08-30T03:30:58.292498415Z","published":"2026-08-27T20:07:34.181Z","database_specific":{"cna_assigner":"VulnCheck","cwe_ids":["CWE-863"],"osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/81xxx/CVE-2026-81729.json"},"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/81xxx/CVE-2026-81729.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-81729"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/dolibarr-before-23.0.4-incorrect-authorization-on-rest-api-document-deletion"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/Dolibarr/dolibarr/commit/de1d7a623e98484cc71fe43e93fdd5cd796abee5"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/Dolibarr/dolibarr"},{"type":"ARTICLE","url":"https://github.com/Dolibarr/dolibarr/blob/23.0.3/htdocs/api/class/api_documents.class.php#L1276"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://github.com/dolibarr/dolibarr","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"cb82037066c1c71f7c867482e9e92975222dfc14"},{"fixed":"de1d7a623e98484cc71fe43e93fdd5cd796abee5"}],"database_specific":{"source":["DESCRIPTION","REFERENCES"],"extracted_events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"23.0.4"}]}}],"versions":["lne_audit_init_20260601","23.0.3","23.0.2","23.0.1","23.0.0","14.0.0","14.0.1","6.0.0-beta","5.0.0-beta","4.0.0-rc","3.8.0-beta","3.7.1","3.7.0","3.6.2","3.6.1","3.6.0","3.6.0-beta","3.6.beta1_20140514","3.6.0-alpha","3.5.beta1_20131120","3.5.beta1_20131106","3.4.beta1_20130502","3.4.beta1_20130429","3.3.beta1_20121221"],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2026-81729.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V4","score":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N"}]}
