CVE-2026-39372 Details
Description
InvoicePlane is a self-hosted open source application for managing invoices, clients, and payments. Prior to 1.7.2, InvoicePlane stores and serves uploaded image attachments without stripping EXIF metadata. When an administrator uploads an image through invoice attachments, quote attachments, or another attachment feature and shares it with another user, the recipient can retrieve embedded GPS coordinates, timestamps, and device information. The preserved metadata can disclose private location and device details across users. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.7.2.
A vulnerability in InvoicePlane prior to version 1.7.2 allows for the retention and exposure of EXIF metadata in uploaded images. This includes sensitive information such as GPS coordinates, timestamps, and device details. When an administrator uploads an image through various attachment features and shares it with another user, the recipient can access this embedded metadata, leading to unintended privacy breaches. The vulnerability arises because the application fails to strip EXIF data from images before storing or serving them.
Users can upgrade to InvoicePlane version 1.7.2, which includes a patch for this vulnerability by adding an option to strip EXIF metadata from uploaded images. Instructions for updating are available in the InvoicePlane documentation.
