CVE-2026-100392: InvoicePlane missing object-level authorization in Users::form()

CVE-2026-100392 · Severity: info · Published 2026-09-28

InvoicePlane is a self-hosted invoicing application. A Secondary Administrator can downgrade the Primary Administrator's role to read-only, stripping all privileges and locking the legitimate owner out of the instance permanently. This occurs because the user-management interface fails to verify that the acting administrator is authorized to modify the Primary Administrator account.

Technologies: InvoicePlane. Vendors: InvoicePlane.

Technical details

Missing object-level authorization in the Users::form() controller method allows a Secondary Administrator (user_type=1, user_id≠1) to alter the Primary Administrator's (user_id=1) user_type field, downgrading it to Guest/read-only status. The vulnerability arises because form() only checks whether the editor is modifying their own account (is_self_edit), but applies no boundary guard preventing changes to user_id=1. An authenticated attacker with Secondary Administrator privileges can directly target user_id=1 through the user-management UI or HTTP request to perform the privilege escalation.
