CVE-2026-55462

Snipe-IT is an IT asset/license management system. Prior to 8.6.2, UsersController::show() and printInventory() authorize only user viewing before loading and rendering assigned license, accessory, and consumable relationships, allowing an authenticated user with only users.view to see inventory and cost/order metadata from modules that direct permissions would otherwise deny. This issue is fixed in version 8.6.2.

Snipe-IT is an IT asset/license management system. Prior to 8.6.2, UsersController::show() and printInventory() authorize only user viewing before loading and rendering assigned license, accessory, and consumable relationships, allowing an authenticated user with only users.view to see inventory and cost/order metadata from modules that direct permissions would otherwise deny. This issue is fixed in version 8.6.2.

Impact

An authenticated user with only users.view can open another user's detail page and see assigned license, accessory, and consumable data even though the same account is denied direct access to the Licenses, Accessories, and Consumables modules. The leaked data includes software license names, purchase order/order values, accessory and consumable names, assignment notes, and purchase costs.

Attacker Model

Authenticated user with only:

{"users.view":"1"}

The attacker does not have:

{
  "licenses.view": "1",
  "accessories.view": "1",
  "consumables.view": "1",
  "assets.view": "1"
}

Affected Component

• app/Http/Controllers/Users/UsersController.php

• resources/views/users/view.blade.php

• resources/views/users/print.blade.php

• Endpoints:

  • GET /users/{user}

  • GET /users/{user}/print

Root Cause

UsersController::show() authorizes only viewing the user, then loads inventory relationships:

$this->authorize('view', $user);

$user = User::with([
    'consumables',
    'accessories',
    'licenses',
    'userloc',
    'groups',
])

resources/views/users/view.blade.php renders those relationships without checking the corresponding module permissions. The license table renders name, purchase cost, purchase order, and order number. The accessory and consumable tables render item names, notes, and unit costs.

UsersController::printInventory() similarly authorizes only view on User::class and the target user, then renders resources/views/users/print.blade.php, which outputs assigned inventory names.

Proof of Concept

1. Create a user with only users.view.

2. Create a target user with assigned license/accessory/consumable records containing recognizable test values.

3. Log in as the users.view-only user.

4. Confirm direct module access is denied:

GET /licenses
GET /accessories
GET /consumables

Observed for each:

HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden

1. Request the target user's page:

GET /users/<target-user-id> HTTP/1.1
Host: <snipe-it-host>
Cookie: snipeit_session=<attacker-session>

Observed:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK

The response contained assigned inventory data from modules the attacker could not directly access, including license name, purchase order/order values, accessory name/note/cost, and consumable name/note/cost.

1. Request the print view:

GET /users/<target-user-id>/print HTTP/1.1
Host: <snipe-it-host>
Cookie: snipeit_session=<attacker-session>

Observed:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
