Summary
A flaw has been found in permission filters in the foreman package. The API loads a filter by its identifier and does not apply the search limit on the caller's permission. A low-privileged attacker who is allowed to delete filters for one role only can delete filters belonging to other unlocked roles, leading to loss of access to resources.
Risk Assessment
An attacker can delete permission filters of other roles, leading to unauthorized changes in permissions and potential security breaches. The risk concerns the integrity of access control.
Recommendation
Update Foreman to a patched version. Restrict permissions to delete filters and enforce strict search filters in the API.
Other vulnerabilities in Foreman
See all- CVE-2015-5246High
The LDAP Authentication functionality in Foreman might allow remote attackers with knowledge of old passwords to gain access via vectors involving the password lifetime period in Active Directory.
- CVE-2016-4996High
In Foreman before 6.2, when the SSH service is enabled on discovered nodes, discovery-debug displays the root password in plaintext in the system journal during login.
- CVE-2015-5152High
Foreman versions from 1.1 to before 1.9.0-RC1 do not redirect HTTP requests to HTTPS when the require_ssl setting is enabled. This allows remote attackers to obtain user credentials via a man-in-the-middle attack.
- CVE-2017-7505High
Foreman since version 1.5 is vulnerable to an incorrect authorization check, allowing users with user management permissions assigned to certain organizations to perform all operations granted by these permissions on administrator user objects outside their scope.
- CVE-2016-4475High
The Organization and Locations APIs and UIs in Foreman before 1.11.4 and 1.12.x before 1.12.0-RC3 allow remote authenticated users to bypass organization and location restrictions, enabling (a) reading, (b) editing, or (c) deleting arbitrary organizations or locations.
- CVE-2013-0210High
The smart proxy Puppet run API in Foreman before 1.2.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via vectors related to escaping and Puppet commands.
- CVE-2013-0171High
Foreman before 1.1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted YAML object to the (1) fact or (2) report import API.
- CVE-2012-5648High
Multiple SQL injection vulnerabilities in Foreman before 1.0.2 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via unspecified parameters in search.rb or puppetclass.rb, related to the search mechanism.
- CVE-2026-96659Critical
A flaw in Foreman allows an authenticated user with low-level Viewer permissions to cause unauthorized information disclosure by submitting requests to template preview endpoints. The user can access sensitive data such as host root passwords. Under insecure configurations with Safemode disabled, the flaw may also allow arbitrary command execution as the Foreman system account.
- CVE-2026-96658Critical
A flaw in Foreman allows an authenticated attacker with low-level permissions to achieve remote code execution (RCE) by bypassing the Safemode sandbox within the templating engine. Due to improper handling of delegated methods, the attacker can append unauthorized functions to the allowed execution list, enabling arbitrary command execution on the hosting server.
Original NVD description (English source)
A flaw has been found in **permission filters** in the **foreman** package. The API loads a filter by its identifier and does not apply the search limit on the caller's permission. A low-privileged network attacker or user must already be allowed to delete filters for one role only. They can delete filters that belong to other unlocked roles. Those other roles then lose the access the deleted filters had granted.
