Technical details
An authorization bypass (CWE-639) exists in the BulkAssetsController::update() method of Snipe-IT. The vulnerability stems from the application accepting a 'company_id' directly from user input without validating it against the standard company-scoping function 'Company::getIdForCurrentUser()'. An authenticated attacker with low privileges can exploit this to reassign assets to different companies, breaking the isolation intended in multi-tenant deployments. The issue is addressed in version 8.4.2 by ensuring proper company-scoping checks are applied during bulk updates.
