Technical details
A broken access control vulnerability (Insecure Direct Object Reference) exists in the `tickets.getMilestone` JSON-RPC endpoint of Leantime. The `getMilestone()` method in `app/Domain/Tickets/Services/Tickets.php` lacked a project ownership check, only verifying general ticket-read permissions. An authenticated attacker can supply arbitrary integer milestone IDs to the API to retrieve sensitive data, including milestone titles, descriptions, and timelines, regardless of their project membership. The issue is resolved by adding a project assignment verification check using `isUserAssignedToProject()` before returning data.
