Admidio: Cross-Organization Member Data Exposure via Permission Check Mismatch in contacts_data.php
Admidio is an open-source user management solution. Prior to version 5.0.9, the contacts_data.php endpoint uses a weaker permission check (isAdministratorUsers(), requiring only rol_edit_user=true) than the frontend UI (contacts.php) which correctly requires the stronger isAdministrator() (requiring rol_administrator=true) and the contacts_show_all system setting. A user manager who is not a full administrator can directly request contacts_data.php?mem_show_filter=3 to retrieve all user records across all organizations in the Admidio instance, bypassing multi-tenant organization isolation. This issue has been patched in version 5.0.9.
Admidio: Path Traversal via Unvalidated `name` Parameter in Document Add Mode Enables Arbitrary Server File Read
Admidio is an open-source user management solution. Prior to version 5.0.9, the add mode in modules/documents-files.php accepts a name parameter validated only as 'string' type (HTML encoding), allowing path traversal characters (../) to pass through unfiltered. Combined with the absence of CSRF protection on this endpoint and SameSite=Lax session cookies, a low-privileged attacker can trick a documents administrator into clicking a crafted link that registers an arbitrary server file (e.g., install/config.php containing database credentials) into a documents folder accessible to the attacker. This issue has been patched in version 5.0.9.
Admidio: Path Traversal in ECard Preview Allows Reading Arbitrary Server Files Including Database Credentials
Admidio is an open-source user management solution. Prior to version 5.0.9, the ecard_preview.php endpoint does not validate that the ecard_template POST parameter is a safe filename before passing it to ECard::getEcardTemplate(). An authenticated user can supply a path traversal payload (e.g., ../config.php) to read arbitrary files accessible to the web server process, including adm_my_files/config.php which contains database credentials. This issue has been patched in version 5.0.9.
Admidio: Missing CSRF Protection on Registration Approval Actions
Admidio is an open-source user management solution. Prior to version 5.0.8, the create_user, assign_member, and assign_user action modes in modules/registration.php approve pending user registrations via GET request without validating a CSRF token. Unlike the delete_user mode in the same file (which correctly validates the token), these three approval actions read their parameters from $_GET and perform irreversible state changes without any protection. An attacker who has submitted a pending registration can extract their own user UUID from the registration confirmation email URL, then trick any user with the rol_approve_users right into vis
Admidio: CSRF and Form Validation Bypass in Inventory Item Save via `imported` Parameter
Admidio is an open-source user management solution. Prior to version 5.0.8, the inventory module's item_save endpoint accepts a user-controllable POST parameter imported that, when set to true, completely bypasses both CSRF token validation and server-side form validation. An authenticated user can craft a direct POST request to save arbitrary inventory item data without CSRF protection and without the field value checks that the FormPresenter validation normally enforces. This issue has been patched in version 5.0.8.
Admidio: Second-Order SQL Injection via List Configuration (lsc_special_field, lsc_sort, lsc_filter)
Admidio is an open-source user management solution. Versions 5.0.6 and below are vulnerable to arbitrary SQL Injection through the MyList configuration feature. The MyList configuration feature lets authenticated users define custom list column layouts, storing user-supplied column names, sort directions, and filter conditions in the adm_list_columns table via prepared statements. However, these stored values are later read back and interpolated directly into dynamically constructed SQL queries without sanitization or parameterization, creating a classic second-order SQL injection vulnerability (safe write, unsafe read). An attacker can explo
Admidio: HTMLPurifier Bypass in eCard Message Allows HTML Email Injection
Admidio is an open-source user management solution. In versions 5.0.6 and below, the eCard send handler uses a raw $_POST['ecard_message'] value instead of the HTMLPurifier-sanitized $formValues['ecard_message'] when constructing the greeting card HTML. This allows an authenticated attacker to inject arbitrary HTML and JavaScript into greeting card emails sent to other members, bypassing the server-side HTMLPurifier sanitization that is properly applied to the ecard_message field during form validation. An attack can result in any member or role receiving phishing content that appears legitimate, crossing from the web application into recipie
Admidio: Unrestricted File Upload via CSRF Token Validation Bypass in Documents & Files Module
Admidio is an open-source user management solution. Versions 5.0.6 and below contain a critical unrestricted file upload vulnerability in the Documents & Files module. Due to a design flaw in how CSRF token validation and file extension verification interact within UploadHandlerFile.php, an authenticated user with upload permissions can bypass file extension restrictions by intentionally submitting an invalid CSRF token. This allows the upload of arbitrary file types, including PHP scripts, which may lead to Remote Code Execution on the server, resulting in full server compromise, data exfiltration, and lateral movement. This issue has been f
Admidio is Missing CSRF Protection on Role Membership Date Changes
Admidio is an open-source user management solution. In versions 5.0.6 and below, the save_membership action in modules/profile/profile_function.php saves changes to a member's role membership start and end dates but does not validate the CSRF token. The handler checks stop_membership and remove_former_membership against the CSRF token but omits save_membership from that check. Because membership UUIDs appear in the HTML source visible to authenticated users, an attacker can embed a crafted POST form on any external page and trick a role leader into submitting it, silently altering membership dates for any member of roles the victim leads. A r
Admidio: Event participation IDOR - non-leaders can register other users for events via user_uuid parameter
Admidio is an open-source user management solution. Prior to 5.0.6, in modules/events/events_function.php, the event participation logic allows any user who can participate in an event to register OTHER users by manipulating the user_uuid GET parameter. The condition uses || (OR), meaning if possibleToParticipate() returns true (event is open for participation), ANY user - not just leaders - can specify a different user_uuid and register/cancel participation for that user. The code then operates on $user->getValue('usr_id') (the target user from user_uuid) rather than the current user. This vulnerability is fixed in 5.0.6.
