CVE-2026-112001
ProjectSend 2.0.0 before 2.7.0 contains an incorrect authorization vulnerability that allows restricted API token holders to change the token owner's credentials via PATCH /api/v1/users/{user}.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.62%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
ProjectSend 2.0.0 before 2.7.0 contains an incorrect authorization vulnerability that allows restricted API token holders to change the token owner's credentials via PATCH /api/v1/users/{user}. Attackers with a token limited to manage_users and edit_users can set a new owner password, clear two-factor authentication, and sign in interactively with the owner's full role permissions.
