CVE-2026-47169 Details
Description
Quest Bot is an opensource modern Discord Bot built for moderation, utilities and support. Prior to version 1.0.3, a user with Manage Server / ManageGuild, but without Manage Roles or Administrator, can configure the bot’s AutoRole feature to assign an arbitrary role to new members. If the selected role has Administrator and is below the bot’s highest role, the attacker can join with a controlled account and receive full server admin. This issue has been patched in version 1.0.3.
A vulnerability in Quest Bot, a Discord bot for moderation and utilities, allows users with Manage Server rights to exploit the AutoRole feature. Prior to version 1.0.3, these users could assign arbitrary roles to new members. If the assigned role had Administrator privileges and was lower than the bot's highest role, the user could gain full administrative rights on the server by joining with a controlled account. This issue arises because the bot's role assignment logic only verifies that the user can manage the server, not that they have the authority to assign the chosen role, bypassing Discord's usual role management checks.
Users are advised to update to Quest Bot version 1.0.3, where this vulnerability has been patched.
