CVE-2026-125744 · Severity: info · Published 2026-11-10

pretix is an event ticket sales platform. An API endpoint for changing ticket layouts failed to verify user permissions, allowing attackers with read-only event access to modify the layout. While ticket layouts are not sensitive data, this represents a privilege escalation and could undermine event configuration integrity.
