{"id":"GHSA-j5mc-p8qg-39j7","summary":"Kimai Favorite Timesheet Add and Remove Endpoints Allows Cross-User Bookmark Manipulation","details":"### Summary\n\nKimai 2.56.0 contains an authenticated improper authorization / IDOR vulnerability in the favorite timesheet add and remove endpoints. A low-privileged user who knows another user's `timesheet.id` can add that record to, or remove it from, the victim's `favorite/recent` bookmark list. This allows cross-user manipulation of per-user favorite state without administrative privileges.\n\n### Details\n\nThe issue affects the following routes:\n\n- `GET /en/favorite/timesheet/add/{id}`\n- `GET /en/favorite/timesheet/remove/{id}`\n\nBoth endpoints accept a user-controlled timesheet identifier and only require the caller to hold the generic `start_own_timesheet` permission. They do not verify that the referenced `Timesheet` object belongs to the currently authenticated user.\n\n- In `src/Controller/FavoriteController.php`, the controller methods accept a `Timesheet` object directly and forward it to the favorite service. \n- The root cause becomes more obvious in `src/Timesheet/FavoriteRecordService.php`. The bookmark owner is derived from `$timesheet-\u003egetUser()` instead of the current session user.\n- Because of this design, any authenticated user who can reference another user's timesheet ID can modify the victim's `favorite/recent` bookmark data.\n\n*A PoC was provided, but removed for security reasons.*\n\n### Impact\n\nThis vulnerability allows any authenticated low-privileged user to manipulate another user's favorite bookmark state across accounts. An attacker can inject arbitrary victim-owned timesheet entries into the victim's quick-entry workflow, remove existing favorites, and repeatedly disturb the victim's normal timesheet usage without needing administrative privileges.\n\nThe issue does not directly disclose sensitive data, but it is a real cross-user business-state tampering vulnerability with clear integrity impact. Because the add and remove endpoints can be combined, an attacker can reliably insert, remove, and reorder entries in another user's `favorite/recent` list.","aliases":["CVE-2026-80197"],"modified":"2026-09-10T03:51:11.558913219Z","published":"2026-07-02T20:44:05Z","database_specific":{"nvd_published_at":null,"cwe_ids":["CWE-639","CWE-862"],"severity":"LOW","github_reviewed":true,"github_reviewed_at":"2026-07-02T20:44:05Z"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/kimai/kimai/security/advisories/GHSA-j5mc-p8qg-39j7"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/kimai/kimai"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://www.kimai.org/en/security/ghsa-j5mc-p8qg-39j7"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"kimai/kimai","ecosystem":"Packagist","purl":"pkg:composer/kimai/kimai"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"2.57.0"}]}],"versions":["0.1","0.2","0.3","0.4","0.5","0.6","0.6.1","0.7","0.8","0.8.1","0.9","1.0","1.0.1","1.1","1.10","1.10.1","1.10.2","1.11","1.11.1","1.12","1.13","1.14","1.14.1","1.14.2","1.14.3","1.15","1.15.1","1.15.2","1.15.3","1.15.4","1.15.5","1.15.6","1.16","1.16.1","1.16.10","1.16.2","1.16.3","1.16.4","1.16.5","1.16.6","1.16.7","1.16.8","1.16.9","1.17","1.17.1","1.18","1.18.1","1.18.2","1.19","1.19.1","1.19.2","1.19.3","1.19.4","1.19.5","1.19.6","1.19.7","1.2","1.20","1.20.1","1.20.2","1.20.3","1.20.4","1.21.0","1.22.0","1.22.1","1.23.0","1.23.1","1.24.0","1.25.0","1.26.0","1.27.0","1.28.0","1.28.1","1.29.0","1.29.1","1.3","1.30.0","1.30.1","1.30.10","1.30.11","1.30.2","1.30.3","1.30.4","1.30.5","1.30.6","1.30.7","1.30.8","1.30.9","1.4","1.4.1","1.4.2","1.5","1.6","1.6.1","1.6.2","1.7","1.8","1.9","2.0.0","2.0.0-alpha","2.0.0-beta","2.0.0-beta-2","2.0.0-beta-3","2.0.0-rc-1","2.0.1","2.0.10","2.0.11","2.0.12","2.0.13","2.0.14","2.0.15","2.0.16","2.0.17","2.0.18","2.0.19","2.0.2","2.0.20","2.0.21","2.0.22","2.0.23","2.0.24","2.0.25","2.0.26","2.0.27","2.0.28","2.0.29","2.0.3","2.0.30","2.0.31","2.0.32","2.0.33","2.0.34","2.0.35","2.0.4","2.0.5","2.0.6","2.0.7","2.0.8","2.0.9","2.1.0","2.10.0","2.11.0","2.12.0","2.13.0","2.14.0","2.15.0","2.16.0","2.16.1","2.17.0","2.18.0","2.19.0","2.19.1","2.2.0","2.2.1","2.20.0","2.20.1","2.21.0","2.22.0","2.23.0","2.24.0","2.25.0","2.26.0","2.27.0","2.28.0","2.29.0","2.3.0","2.30.0","2.31.0","2.32.0","2.33.0","2.34.0","2.35.0","2.35.1","2.36.0","2.36.1","2.37.0","2.38.0","2.39.0","2.4.0","2.4.1","2.40.0","2.41.0","2.42.0","2.43.0","2.44.0","2.45.0","2.46.0","2.47.0","2.48.0","2.49.0","2.5.0","2.50.0","2.51.0","2.52.0","2.53.0","2.54.0","2.55.0","2.56.0","2.6.0","2.7.0","2.8.0","2.9.0"],"database_specific":{"last_known_affected_version_range":"\u003c= 2.56.0","source":"https://github.com/github/advisory-database/blob/main/advisories/github-reviewed/2026/07/GHSA-j5mc-p8qg-39j7/GHSA-j5mc-p8qg-39j7.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:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U"}]}
