CVE-2026-111928: Coder authorization bypass in RBAC policy ACL evaluation

CVE-2026-111928 · Severity: medium · CVSS 5.4 · Published 2026-10-17

Coder is a platform that provides remote development environments and workspaces accessible through web and API interfaces. A flaw in its authorization system allows users who were removed from an organization to retain access to templates and workspaces they previously had permission to use, potentially exposing sensitive development resources. This affects multi-organization deployments where administrators grant per-user access permissions to organization-scoped resources.

How to fix

Fixed in: 2.34.8, 2.35.0, 2.36.0

Administrators can immediately mitigate this issue by manually revoking user-level ACL entries on organization-scoped resources before removing a user from an organization.

Technical details

The RBAC policy engine in coderd/rbac/policy.rego fails to verify current organization membership when evaluating user-level ACL entries on organization-scoped resources, unlike the corresponding group-level ACL rule which performs this check. Additionally, removing a member from an organization does not delete stale per-user ACL entries they held on org-scoped resources. An authenticated attacker (user who was previously in the organization) can exploit this by calling the API with a stale user-level ACL entry to access templates and workspaces after removal from the organization.

Affected products

Coder Coder 2.0.0 before 2.34.8
