CVE-2026-5251 Details
Description
A vulnerability was identified in z-9527 admin 1.0/2.0. This impacts an unknown function of the file /server/routes/user.js of the component User Update Endpoint. Such manipulation of the argument isAdmin with the input 1 leads to dynamically-determined object attributes. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploit is publicly available and might be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
A mass assignment vulnerability exists in Z-9527 Admin versions 1.0 and 2.0, prior to commit 72aaf2d. The issue is located in the User Update Endpoint, specifically within the file /server/routes/user.js. This vulnerability allows authenticated attackers to manipulate the isAdmin parameter, escalating privileges by gaining admin rights. The flaw arises because user-supplied input is directly incorporated into SQL UPDATE statements without proper validation or whitelisting of fields. As a result, attackers can modify arbitrary database columns, including those related to user privileges.
No specific mitigation measures are known for this vulnerability.
