Admidio Admidio vulnerabilities

Admidio 4.3.2 through 4.3.17 and 5.0.0 before 5.0.15 contains a broken access control vulnerability that allows role administrators to assign users to roles in other organizations. Attackers can submit crafted assign requests to members_assignment.php with a foreign role UUID to gain privileged membership, log into that organization, and edit its user profiles.

Admidio 5.0.0 before 5.0.15 contains an unauthenticated stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in RegistrationPresenter.php, which inserts the raw FIRST_NAME registration value into an unencoded data-message attribute. Attackers can register with a double-quoted event handler that executes JavaScript in an administrator's session when they hover the entry on the Manage registrations page.

Admidio 4.0.12 through 4.3.17 and 5.0.0 before 5.0.15 contains a reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability in system/redirect.php that allows unauthenticated attackers to inject JavaScript via the url GET parameter, due to an incomplete fix for CVE-2021-43810. Attackers can craft a javascript: URL containing a decoy http:// segment that passes validation and executes script in the Admidio origin when victims click the redirect link.

Admidio is an open-source user management solution. In versions 5.0.11 and prior, the modules/plugins.php endpoint handles plugin installation, uninstallation, and update operations via GET requests without CSRF token validation. Because these are top-level navigations, browsers include SameSite=Lax session cookies. An attacker crafts a malicious page that, when an authenticated administrator visits it, triggers arbitrary plugin operations. The uninstall operation executes DROP TABLE SQL scripts and destroys plugin data. This issue has been patched via commit 056b1bd.

Admidio versions before 5.0.12 contain a broken access control vulnerability in profile_function.php that allows authenticated low-privilege users to read another user's future role memberships. Attackers can bypass profile-level authorization by directly calling the reload_future_memberships endpoint with a victim's user UUID to disclose sensitive membership information.

Admidio is an open-source user management solution. Prior to version 5.0.10, when debug logging is enabled, `Session::setCookie()` logs full cookie values and `Session::start()` logs the current session ID. In a real Admidio deployment this includes both the active session cookie and the persistent auto-login cookie. Anyone with access to the log sink can recover live bearer-style credentials from the logs. Version 5.0.10 contains a fix.

Admidio is an open-source user management solution. Version 5.0.9 added a missing `isAdministratorInventory()` gate to `case 'item_delete':` in `modules/inventory.php`. The same fix was not applied to the sibling `case 'field_delete':` handler, which destroys an entire inventory field definition, cascading to every `adm_inventory_item_data` row that referenced that field and every `adm_inventory_field_options` entry. The handler validates only a session-bound CSRF token; there is no `isAdministratorInventory()` check at the controller level, and `Admidio\Inventory\Entity\ItemField::delete()` does not enforce one at the entity level either (unlike its sibling `ItemField::save()`, which does check `$gCurrentUser->isAdministrator()`). Any user who can log in to the site can permanently destroy a non-system inventory field by sending one POST. Version 5.0.10 provides an updated fix.

Admidio is an open-source user management solution. Prior to version 5.0.10, the sensitive `mode=export` action in `modules/sso/keys.php` exports a PKCS#12 bundle containing the configured private key and certificate, but the CSRF validation line is commented out. A forged cross-site POST from an administrator session can therefore trigger private key export without a valid form token. Version 5.0.10 contains a fix.

Admidio is an open-source user management solution. Prior to version 5.0.10, `modules/documents-files.php` mode `file_rename_save` shares the same root-cause shape as the cross-folder move bug (`05-documents-cross-folder-move-idor.md`): the top-level rights check at lines 79-89 validates `hasUploadRight()` on the URL parameter `folder_uuid`, but the rename operation acts on `file_uuid` — a separate URL parameter — without re-checking the folder that actually contains the file. `DocumentsService::renameFile()` resolves the target file via `getFileForDownload()` (which permits view-readable files) but does not require upload right on the file's source folder. Result: a user with upload right on any folder A can rename a file in folder B as long as they can view it. They can also overwrite the file's description. Version 5.0.10 contains a fix.

Admidio is an open-source user management solution. Prior to version 5.0.10, `modules/sso/clients.php` validates an `adm_csrf_token` on every state-changing branch except `enable`. The `enable` case loads the SAML or OIDC client by UUID, calls `$client->enable($enabled)`, and persists the new state with no token check. Because the action is reachable via plain GET parameters, a third-party page can trick an authenticated administrator into disabling (or silently re-enabling) any configured SAML or OIDC client. Disabling an SSO client breaks every downstream relying-party application that authenticates through it. Version 5.0.10 contains a fix.

Admidio is an open-source user management solution. `modules/registration.php` mode `send_login` regenerates a random password for `user_uuid_assigned`, stores its bcrypt hash in `adm_users.usr_password`, and emails the cleartext to that user. Every other state-changing mode in the same file (`assign_member`, `assign_user`, `delete_user`, `create_user`) calls `SecurityUtils::validateCsrfToken($_POST['adm_csrf_token'])` first; the `send_login` branch does not. Prior to version 5.0.10, page visited by a registration-administrator can issue the request as a top-level navigation, the browser sends the admin's `SameSite=Lax` cookies, and the server resets the chosen user's password without any further interaction from the admin. Version 5.0.10 fixes the issue.

Admidio is an open-source user management solution. `modules/categories.php` checks that the supplied `type` parameter (`ANN`, `EVT`, `ROL`, `USF`, …) corresponds to a module the actor administers. The follow-up "is this specific category editable by me" check at lines 56-61 is dead code because it compares `$getType` (a category-type code) against mode names (`edit`/`save`/`delete`); the condition is permanently false, so `$category->isEditable()` is never invoked. Prior to version 5.0.10, the `delete`, `sequence`, and `save` switch cases load the category by the supplied UUID and act on it without re-checking that the category belongs to a module the actor administers. A user holding only one module-administrator right can therefore destroy or reorder empty categories belonging to *other* modules — for example, an announcements administrator can delete role categories, profile-field categories, or weblink categories that they have no right to touch. Version 5.0.10 fixes the issue.

Admidio is an open-source user management solution. Prior to version 5.0.10, an authenticated Admidio member with upload rights on any one folder can permanently delete files from folders where they have only view access. The authorization check at the top of `modules/documents-files.php` evaluates upload rights against the attacker-supplied `folder_uuid` URL parameter — not the file's actual parent folder. The `file_delete` handler then only verifies view rights on the file's real location, never upload rights. By passing a folder they legitimately own in `folder_uuid` while targeting a file in a restricted folder via `file_uuid`, an attacker bypasses the upload-right check entirely and permanently deletes the file. This is an incomplete fix of GHSA-rmpj-3x5m-9m5f, which was patched in v5.0.7 but remains exploitable in v5.0.9. User should upgrade to v5.0.10 to receive an updated fix.

Admidio before 5.0.11 contains an insecure direct object reference vulnerability in the save_temporary mode of mylist_function.php that allows authenticated users to hijack list configurations. Attackers can enumerate global list UUIDs and overwrite admin-curated global lists or other users' private lists by supplying a list_uuid parameter, transferring ownership and demoting global lists to personal configurations.

Admidio before 5.0.11 does not validate the adm_csrf_token in modules/category-report/preferences.php, which performs persistent Category Report configuration changes based on GET parameters (delete and copy). An attacker can trick an authenticated administrator into visiting a crafted URL to delete or duplicate Category Report configurations, affecting the integrity and availability of that module's configuration.

Admidio versions before 5.0.11 contain a reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability in the SSO/SAML endpoint that echoes unencoded exception messages to the HTTP response. Unauthenticated attackers can inject arbitrary JavaScript through SAML Issuer elements or LightSaml library parameters to execute code in users' browsers and hijack sessions.

Admidio before 5.0.11 fails to validate target organization membership in role handlers, allowing authenticated role administrators to delete, activate, deactivate, or edit roles belonging to other organizations. Attackers can supply a role UUID from another organization to groups_roles.php handlers to modify that organization's roles without authorization.

Admidio 3.3.5 contains a cross-site request forgery vulnerability that allows low-privilege users to increase their permissions by exploiting improper origin checking. Attackers can craft malicious HTML forms targeting roles_function.php with parameters like rol_assign_roles, rol_approve_users, and rol_edit_user set to 1 to escalate privileges without authentication.

Admidio is an open-source user management solution. Prior to version 5.0.9, the incomplete SSRF fix in Admidio's fetch_metadata.php validates the resolved IP address but passes the original hostname-based URL to curl_init(), leaving a DNS rebinding TOCTOU window that allows redirecting requests to internal IPs. This issue has been patched in version 5.0.9.

Admidio is an open-source user management solution. Prior to version 5.0.9, the OIDC token introspection endpoint (/modules/sso/index.php/oidc/introspect) always returns {"active": true} for every request, regardless of whether a valid token is provided, whether the token is expired, revoked, or completely fabricated. The endpoint performs no authentication of the calling resource server and no validation of the submitted token. Any resource server that relies on this introspection endpoint to validate access tokens will accept all requests as authorized, enabling complete authentication bypass. Additionally, the OIDC token revocation endpoint (/oidc/revoke) returns {"revoked": true} without actually revoking any token, preventing resource servers from invalidating compromised credentials. This issue has been patched in version 5.0.9.
