CVE-2026-41498 Details
Description
Kimai is an open-source time tracking application. Prior to version 2.54.0, the Team API endpoints use #[IsGranted('edit_team')] instead of #[IsGranted('edit', 'team')], causing Symfony TeamVoter to abstain from voting. This removes entity-level ownership checks on team operations, allowing any user with the edit_team permission to modify any team, not just teams they are authorized to manage. This issue has been patched in version 2.54.0.
A vulnerability exists in Kimai's Team API endpoints prior to version 2.54.0, where incorrect permission attributes allow users with the 'edit_team' permission to modify any team. This flaw arises because the endpoints use 'edit_team' as a single argument, which the Symfony TeamVoter does not recognize for entity-level authorization. As a result, ownership checks are bypassed, enabling unauthorized modifications to team memberships and assignments.
Users should update to Kimai version 2.54.0 or later, where this vulnerability has been patched.
