Authenticated account modification via unchecked user save
Published Mar 7, 2022 · Updated Aug 2, 2024
Improper authorization in SuiteCRM before 7.12.5 allows remote authenticated users to modify another user account through a crafted save request. User::save accepted updates without verifying that the current user ID matched the target record or that the caller was an administrator. Any authenticated account can reach the flaw, and the documented impact is limited to unauthorized modification rather than data disclosure or service interruption.
