Technical details

The vulnerability stems from a broken access control implementation that reuses a shared token across all conversion requests, failing to properly validate user identity or document ownership. An unauthenticated attacker on the network can directly access conversion results belonging to other users by guessing or manipulating the token. The vulnerability affects the HTML-to-PDF conversion API endpoint in Foxit's online services.
