CVE-2026-40904 Details
Description
Chartbrew is an open-source web application that can connect directly to databases and APIs and use the data to create charts. In version 4.9.0, Chartbrew exposes multiple dataset and dataRequest endpoints that authorize low-privileged project members at the team level instead of binding the requested dataset_id, dataRequest id, and connection_id to the caller's allowed projects. An authenticated attacker who only has access to one project inside a team can read, execute, create, update, and delete datasets and data requests that belong to other projects in the same team. The issue is exploitable remotely with ordinary project-level credentials and leads to cross-project data disclosure and unauthorized use of victim-side database or API connections. This issue has been patched in version 5.0.0.
A vulnerability in Chartbrew version 4.9.0 allows low-privileged project members to access, modify, and delete datasets and data requests across different projects within the same team. This issue arises because the application improperly authorizes access at the team level, without verifying that the requested resources belong to the caller's allowed projects. As a result, an authenticated attacker can exploit this flaw remotely, using standard project-level credentials, leading to unauthorized access to sensitive data and misuse of database or API connections on behalf of the victim.
Users are advised to update to Chartbrew version 5.0.0, where this vulnerability has been patched.
