Cross-user profile-picture modification via unchecked object references
Published Jul 13, 2026 · Updated Jul 13, 2026
IDOR in Cozmoslabs User Profile Picture 2.6.3 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to alter another user's profile picture. The AJAX and REST handlers accept user, profile-picture-post, and media identifiers without verifying requester ownership or that referenced media is an attachment. Exploitation requires an authenticated account with image-upload privileges; the bounded impact is retrieving, setting, or removing other users' profile pictures.
