Elabftw Elabftw vulnerabilities

eLabFTW is an open source electronic lab notebook. Prior to version 5.4.2, in certain cases, an authenticated user performing a numeric reference/search can return results that include resources the requesting user is not authorized to view. The exposed information is limited (only the title). Attempts to access the underlying protected resource content remain blocked by authorization checks. Version 5.4.2 fixes the issue. # Affected Scope Cross-scope visibility of titles. No confirmed bypass of content-level access controls # Preconditions An authenticated user account No special privileges required beyond standard access # Impact This may enable unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information if confidential data is included in resource titles. Examples could include project names, patient identifiers, or other regulated information embedded in titles.

eLabFTW is an open source electronic lab notebook. In elabftw versions through 5.4.1, the login flow did not reliably preserve the multi-factor authentication state across authentication steps. Under certain conditions, an attacker with valid primary credentials could complete authentication with an attacker-controlled TOTP secret and bypass the additional factor. This could result in unauthorized account access. This issue is fixed in version 5.4.2.

eLabFTW is an open source electronic lab notebook for research labs. The application served uploaded SVG files inline. Because SVG supports active content, an attacker could upload a crafted SVG that executes script when viewed, resulting in stored XSS under the application origin. A victim who opens the SVG URL or any page embedding it could have their session hijacked, data exfiltrated, or actions performed on their behalf. This vulnerability is fixed n 5.3.0.
