Technical details

An Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR) vulnerability exists in the GET /api/user/info/<user_id> and GET /api/user/profile-image/<user_id> endpoints within 'application/single_app/route_backend_users.py'. The application failed to perform object-level authorization checks after verifying the caller's authentication status. An attacker with low-level authenticated access could provide a target user's Entra object ID to retrieve their Cosmos DB user-settings document, exposing email addresses, display names, and profile images. The issue is resolved in version 0.241.203 by implementing an authorization boundary that restricts profile access to the user themselves, administrators, or verified collaborators.
