Data disclosure and modification via skipped XPath constraints
Published Mar 8, 2022 · Updated Oct 8, 2024
Improper access control in Siemens Mendix Runtime 7, 8, and 9 allows remote authenticated users to read and alter sensitive application data. When an entity association is readable, the Runtime fails to enforce XPath constraints that parse that association, exposing otherwise restricted attributes. Exploitation requires an authenticated user and a reachable association; Runtime 9 is affected only when DataStorage.UseNewQueryHandler is False.
