CVE-2026-35514: Unauthenticated Account Registration via /user/invited Bypasses All Signup Restrictions in Chartbrew
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 26/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.24% (FIRST EPSS).
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- According to CISA the attack is automatable: targets can be found by mass scanning.
- Fixed version: chartbrew chartbrew 5.0.0.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to chartbrew chartbrew 5.0.0 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
Chartbrew is an open-source web application that can connect directly to databases and APIs and use the data to create charts. In version 4.9.0, the endpoint POST /user/invited does not validate any invite token, authentication header, or session. Any unauthenticated attacker can call this endpoint directly to create a fully active account and receive a valid JWT — even when the instance has existing users and signupRestricted is enabled. This bypass is distinct from the normal registration endpoint (POST /user) which enforces signupRestricted and sets active: false pending verification. This issue has been patched in version 5.0.0.
