CVE-2026-41658 Details
Description
Admidio is an open-source user management solution. Prior to version 5.0.9, the Admidio inventory module enforces authorization for destructive operations (delete, retire, reinstate) only in the UI layer by conditionally rendering buttons. The backend POST handlers at modules/inventory.php for item_delete, item_retire, item_reinstate, item_picture_upload, item_picture_save, and item_picture_delete perform CSRF validation but never check whether the requesting user is an inventory administrator. Any authenticated user who can access the inventory module can permanently delete any inventory item and all its associated data. This issue has been patched in version 5.0.9.
A vulnerability exists in the Admidio inventory module prior to version 5.0.9, where authorization for destructive actions such as deleting, retiring, and reinstating items is enforced only at the user interface level. The backend POST handlers for these operations perform Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) validation but fail to verify if the user has inventory administrator rights. As a result, any authenticated user with access to the inventory module can permanently delete inventory items and their associated data. This issue has been patched in version 5.0.9.
Users are advised to update to Admidio version 5.0.9 or later, where this vulnerability has been fixed.
