CVE-2024-58293

Akaunting before 2.1.31 contains an OS command injection vulnerability in the module installation and update flow where the alias parameter is passed unvalidated to shell command execution. Authenticated users with admin panel access can inject shell metacharacters into the alias parameter to execute arbitrary commands on the server.

Akaunting 3.1.21 contains an authenticated improper authorization vulnerability in the common BulkActions dispatcher.

In Akaunting versions <= 3.1.21, low-privileged authenticated users can modify their own account to assign themselves the admin role ID, granting full administrator privileges. This vulnerability is caused by a flaw in the UpdateUser job, which processes user-supplied role assignments via an unconditional roles()->sync() call without verifying whether the caller is authorized to manage roles. Users only require the default update-auth-profile permission to access the self-update path and assign themselves as admins. The API endpoints are properly permission-gated and are not affected by this issue. This vulnerability has been remediated in v3.2.0.

In Akaunting, the shared download route (uploads/{id}/download) does not verify that the requested file belongs to the logged-in customer's company. An authenticated portal customer can download other companies' uploaded files by guessing or enumerating media IDs.
