Cross-account data disclosure via incorrect storage permissions
Published Sep 23, 2026 · Updated Sep 23, 2026
Incorrect permissions in WebPros cPanel before 11.134.0.57, 11.136.0.41, or 11.138.0.8 allow local users to read cross-account data. The CalDAV/CardDAV storage setup assigns permissions that expose new calendar and address-book storage, and the same permissions persist on existing accounts. Exploitation requires a local account on the same server and grants read-only access to other users' events and contacts, not modification or root access.
