Details
The Material Design for Contact Form 7 WordPress plugin through 2.6.4 does not check authorization or that the option mentioned in the notice param belongs to the plugin when processing requests to the cf7md_dismiss_notice action, allowing any logged in user (with roles as low as Subscriber) to set arbitrary options to true, potentially leading to Denial of Service by breaking the site.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-07-09 18:31 – Updated: 2026-07-09 18:31
VLAI
Details
An improper authorization check in MISP’s attribute creation endpoint allowed an authenticated user with permission to add attributes to submit a sharing_group_id without triggering the corresponding sharing group authorization check, as long as the attribute distribution value was not explicitly set to 4 — “sharing group”.
As a result, a user could reference or associate an attribute with a sharing group they were not authorized to use. This could lead to an access-control bypass affecting the integrity of attribute sharing metadata and potentially expose or misuse restricted sharing group relationships.
The patch changes the authorization logic so that the sharing group permission check is performed whenever a non-empty sharing_group_id is provided, regardless of the selected distribution value.

Summary
Budibase: S3 presigned URL endpoint authorization regression in v3.39.4 allows BASIC users to obtain S3 PutObject presigned URLs
Details
Impact
In Budibase v3.39.4, a regression in the authorization level for the S3 attachment upload endpoint allows any BASIC app user to obtain S3 PutObject presigned URLs. The endpoint uses TABLE/WRITE permission level instead of the intended BUILDER level defined in v3.39.3. Additionally, the controller does not pin the target bucket to the datasource's configured bucket, allowing writes to any S3 bucket the stored IAM credentials can access.
Reproduction
- As a BASIC app user, discover or obtain a valid S3 datasource ID within the app
- Send a POST request:
POST /api/attachments/<datasourceId>/url
Content-Type: application/json
x-budibase-app-id: <appId>
{"bucket": "target-bucket", "key": "malicious-file.html"}
- The response contains a valid S3 PutObject presigned URL
- Use the presigned URL to upload arbitrary content to any writable S3 bucket in the IAM credential scope
Root Cause
The /api/attachments/:datasourceId/url route was changed from authorized(BUILDER) in v3.39.3 to authorized(PermissionType.TABLE, PermissionLevel.WRITE) in v3.39.4. BASIC users have TABLE/WRITE permissions by default, so they can call this endpoint. The controller at packages/server/src/api/controllers/static/index.ts:614-632 accepts the bucket parameter directly from the request body and passes it to getSignedUrl without validating against the datasource's configured bucket.
Evidence
The test suite at packages/server/src/api/routes/tests/static.spec.ts:218-235 confirms this behavior. The test authenticates as a BASIC role user and successfully generates a signed upload URL, verifying HTTP 200 and a defined res.body.signedUrl.
Remediation
- Restore the
authorized(BUILDER)middleware on the route - Add
paramResource("datasourceId")to ensure the datasource belongs to the caller's app - Pin the S3 bucket to
datasource.config.bucketin the controller, ignoring the caller-supplied bucket value

Mitigation
Architecture and Design
- Divide the product into anonymous, normal, privileged, and administrative areas. Reduce the attack surface by carefully mapping roles with data and functionality. Use role-based access control (RBAC) [REF-229] to enforce the roles at the appropriate boundaries.
- Note that this approach may not protect against horizontal authorization, i.e., it will not protect a user from attacking others with the same role.
Mitigation
Architecture and Design
Ensure that access control checks are performed related to the business logic. These checks may be different than the access control checks that are applied to more generic resources such as files, connections, processes, memory, and database records. For example, a database may restrict access for medical records to a specific database user, but each record might only be intended to be accessible to the patient and the patient's doctor [REF-7].
Mitigation MIT-4.4
Architecture and Design
Strategy: Libraries or Frameworks
- Use a vetted library or framework that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid.
- For example, consider using authorization frameworks such as the JAAS Authorization Framework [REF-233] and the OWASP ESAPI Access Control feature [REF-45].
Mitigation
Architecture and Design
- For web applications, make sure that the access control mechanism is enforced correctly at the server side on every page. Users should not be able to access any unauthorized functionality or information by simply requesting direct access to that page.
- One way to do this is to ensure that all pages containing sensitive information are not cached, and that all such pages restrict access to requests that are accompanied by an active and authenticated session token associated with a user who has the required permissions to access that page.
Mitigation
System Configuration
Installation
Use the access control capabilities of your operating system and server environment and define your access control lists accordingly. Use a "default deny" policy when defining these ACLs.
