CVE-2026-108388 Details
Description
Indico is a feature-rich event management system. Indico 3.3.3 through 3.3.13 incorrectly uses the ambient web-session user instead of the user supplied to Contribution.can_manage when checking inherited event contribution-management permission. A low-privileged user can induce a privileged user to request a crafted legacy contribution export and cause speaker or author email addresses and contribution access-control entries to be stored in an API cache entry retrievable with less privilege. This issue was fixed in Indico 3.3.14.
A vulnerability in the Indico event management system versions 3.3.3 through 3.3.13 allows low-privileged users to manipulate contribution management permissions. The issue arises because the system incorrectly uses the ambient web-session user instead of the user specified in the contribution management permission check. This flaw can be exploited by inducing a privileged user to request a tailored legacy contribution export, which can lead to the unauthorized retrieval of speaker or author email addresses and contribution access control entries through a poisoned API cache.
Users are advised to update Indico to version 3.3.14, where this vulnerability has been fixed. Instructions for updating can be found in the Indico documentation.
