Revive Adserver is a digital advertising management platform used to manage ad campaigns and placements. An authenticated user with zone-linking permissions can associate campaigns from other agencies with their own advertising zones, potentially exposing sensitive campaign details like names and identifiers. This authorization flaw could allow competitors or malicious users to gain visibility into other agencies' advertising strategies.

## Technical details

The vulnerability is an authorization bypass in campaign-zone linking operations in Revive Adserver. Missing campaign ownership validation in the bulk-linking and single-link operations in zone-include.php and the XML-RPC campaign-linking method allows an authenticated manager or trafficker to link foreign campaigns to their own zones. While agency filtering prevents actual banner association, the vulnerability exposes campaign metadata (name, type, identifier) of other agencies.

## Affected products
