Technical details
An authorization bypass exists in the API role handling logic within FOSSBilling. The root cause is a logic error where an exception for disallowed roles is instantiated but never thrown, allowing the 'system' role to proceed. Because the 'system' role resolves to the 'cron admin' identity, unauthenticated attackers can invoke administrative API methods under `/api/system/*` without valid credentials, sessions, or CSRF tokens. This can be further chained with a Server-Side Template Injection (SSTI) vulnerability in the Twig rendering engine to achieve unauthenticated Remote Code Execution (RCE). The issue is patched in version 0.8.0.
