CVE-2026-119707 Details
Description
SonicJS through 3.0.0 contains a missing authorization vulnerability in the /api/:collection and /api/content write routes that only check coarse role labels. Authenticated authors or editors can use a bearer JWT or API key to create, modify, publish, or soft-delete other users' documents, bypassing document ACLs and administrator deny overrides.
A missing authorization vulnerability has been identified in SonicJS versions through 3.0.0. This vulnerability exists in the content write API routes, specifically '/api/:collection' and '/api/content'. The issue arises because these routes only perform a basic role check, allowing authenticated users with 'author' or 'editor' roles to manipulate documents belonging to other users. This includes creating, modifying, publishing, or soft-deleting documents, all while bypassing the document's Access Control Lists (ACLs) and any explicit deny overrides set by administrators.
The vulnerability has been fixed in SonicJS version 3.0.0. Users should update to this version to address the issue.
