Technical details
The vulnerability is a broken access control flaw in Chartbrew's project authorization checks prior to version 5.2.3. Authenticated users who are team owners or admins can bypass authorization by submitting a caller-controlled team_id in the request body; the application evaluates permissions against the attacker's team rather than the target project's actual team, then mass-assigns request body parameters without validation. An attacker requires a valid Chartbrew account with team owner/admin role (achievable via default self-signup), knowledge of a victim project ID, and can re-parent projects, modify access controls, and trigger deletion across tenant boundaries.
