Why this priority: High severity, with no exploitation signal yet.
Published · Updated · NVD status: Received
What it is
The software does not check, or checks wrongly, whether a caller may do something. An action never checks whether the caller is allowed to perform it.
How it is reached
An attacker can exploit it over the network, without an account, and nobody has to click anything.
What an attacker gains
A successful attack can change data or behaviour. In practice, this kind of flaw lets an attacker reach data or actions their role should not allow.
Is it being exploited?
There is no public report of exploitation yet.
What to do
- Upgrade 3xpyth0n ideon to 0.9.4 or later.
- Until it is patched, keep it off the internet or behind a VPN, allowlist or authenticating proxy.
Description from NVD
ideon is a self-hosted visual workspace. Prior to version 0.9.4, several project mutation endpoints under /api/projects/[id]/* resolve the caller's project role but never enforce it, so a user who was granted only the read-only viewer role on a project can perform write operations on that project. The most severe is POST /api/projects/[id]/graph, which deletes every block and link in the project and re-inserts client-supplied ones. A viewer can silently rewrite or wipe the entire canvas of a project they were invited to read. The application clearly intends viewer to be read-only: the collaborators endpoint, the automation endpoints, and the realtime Yjs sync path all reject write attempts from viewers. These specific HTTP handlers simply omit the guard their siblings enforce. This issue has been patched in version 0.9.4.
What this means for your architecture.
A CVE names a product. Whether it matters depends on where that product sits in your systems: what reaches it, which trust boundary it guards and what it can reach once compromised. Veriom maps your components, their relationships and your trust boundaries from your code, cloud and delivery evidence, so you can see where a component like this sits. The radar itself does not look at your systems.
Components it touches
- Permission checks in APIs and admin surfaces. The flaw sits between one role or tenant and another.
- Multi-tenant services. The flaw sits between one role or tenant and another.
Trust boundaries in play
- Internet-facing entry points. No account is needed. Any instance reachable from outside your perimeter, through a load balancer, gateway, VPN or exposed admin port, is in scope.
- Between one role or tenant and another. An attacker who crosses it can reach data or actions their role should not allow.
Questions to answer about your own systems
- Where does 3xpyth0n ideon run in your systems, and at which version?
- Which of those instances can be reached from the internet or partner networks?
- What can it reach once compromised: which data stores, secrets and services?
