CVE-2026-55460: Snipe-IT: Authorization bypass on bulk editing users

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 28/100)

  • 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: 0.43% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: grokability snipe-it 8.6.2.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to grokability snipe-it 8.6.2 or later.

Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

Snipe-IT is an IT asset/license management system. Prior to 8.6.2, an authenticated non-admin user with users.view and users.edit but without users.delete can directly POST to /users/bulksave with delete_user=1 because BulkUsersController::destroy() authorizes only update, allowing the user to soft-delete another non-admin user. This issue is fixed in version 8.6.2.
