Technical details

A Denial of Service (DoS) vulnerability exists in FastapiAdmin v2.2.0 due to improper exception handling in the job update endpoint. Specifically, the '/application/job/update/{id}' endpoint fails to catch exceptions when a user modifies the 'func' field of a scheduled task. An authenticated attacker possessing the 'module_task:job:update' permission can provide malformed or unexpected input to this field, triggering an uncaught exception that crashes the service. This is a network-reachable vulnerability requiring valid credentials with specific administrative privileges.
