Payroll data tampering via unchecked REST fields
Published Aug 24, 2026 · Updated Aug 24, 2026
Improper authorization in Dolibarr ERP & CRM before 24.0.0 allows remote authenticated users to alter payroll data via the user REST API. The update loop in api_users.class.php assigns request fields without checking Salaries read rights for salary, salaryextra, thm, and tjm. User-write rights are sufficient to change another user's compensation values and affect payroll exports without payroll access.
