Summary
FOSSBilling versions 0.6.0 through 0.7.2 have an unauthenticated payment bypass vulnerability. An attacker can mark any unpaid invoice as paid and credit the client account by sending a single crafted HTTP request to the IPN callback endpoint.
Risk Assessment
The risk involves potential theft of services or funds without actual payment, leading to financial losses and compromised billing system integrity.
Recommendation
Upgrade to version 0.8.0 immediately. If not possible, disable the Custom payment adapter and restrict access to `/ipn.php` at the web server level (e.g., via IP allowlisting).
Other vulnerabilities in FOSSBilling
See all- CVE-2026-33543Critical
FOSSBilling versions 0.7.2 and prior have a vulnerability in the guest API that allows the creation of new administrator accounts even when one already exists. A flaw in the admin existence check enables an attacker to bypass protections.
- CVE-2026-28496Critical
FOSSBilling prior to version 0.8.0 has a Server-Side Template Injection (SSTI) vulnerability in the template rendering system. Administrators can inject arbitrary Twig expressions, leading to information disclosure and remote code execution.
- CVE-2026-27604Critical
FOSSBilling versions 0.5.4 to 0.8.0 have an authorization bypass in API role handling, allowing unauthenticated access to privileged `/api/system/*` endpoints. Attackers can invoke admin API methods without valid credentials.
- CVE-2026-53648Medium
In FOSSBilling prior to version 0.8.1, downloadable product files are stored using a deterministic filename-derived path (MD5 hash). Two different products or order files with the same original filename overwrite each other, causing customers or administrators to receive the wrong file.
- CVE-2026-53647Medium
In FOSSBilling versions 0.5.3 through 0.7.2, the Guest `serviceapikey/get_info` API endpoint is accessible without authentication. Any caller with a valid API key can retrieve all custom configuration parameters (`custom_*` fields) stored in the key's database record.
- CVE-2026-53646High
In FOSSBilling versions 0.5.6 through 0.7.2, when a client requests a password reset multiple times, the system reuses the existing token instead of generating a new one, with the 15-minute validity anchored to the first request. An attacker who obtained the original reset link can still use it even after the victim requests a new reset, as the original token is never invalidated.
- CVE-2026-53645High
FOSSBilling prior to version 0.8.0 contains a vulnerability that allows a low-privileged staff account to escalate privileges via the admin API. A user with the `staff.create_and_edit_staff` permission can call `/api/admin/staff/permissions_update` for their own account and set any permissions, bypassing role-based access control.
- CVE-2026-53644High
FOSSBilling versions 0.5.3 through 0.7.2 allow authenticated clients to read and reset API key secrets for orders that are no longer active (e.g., suspended, canceled). The root cause is missing order-state validation in two client API endpoints, despite an `isActive()` helper existing in the `Serviceapikey` module and the frontend UI correctly gating access on active orders.
- CVE-2026-53643High
FOSSBilling versions prior to 0.8.0 allow low-privileged staff accounts to perform unauthorized actions via admin API endpoints. The root cause is a combination of the `can_always_access` module flag and insufficient permission checks or unsafe parameter handling on individual endpoints.
- CVE-2026-53642Medium
In FOSSBilling versions 0.5.6 through 0.7.2, when the 'Require Email Confirmation' setting is enabled, a logged-in client with an unverified email address can access all client-area pages, such as wallet balance and transaction history. The API-side enforcement works correctly, but the page-side enforcement is overly permissive, allowing any request starting with '/client'.
Original NVD description (English source)
FOSSBilling is a free, open-source billing and client management system. Versions 0.6.0 through 0.7.2 have an unauthenticated payment bypass vulnerability in FOSSBilling's IPN callback endpoint. When the Custom payment adapter is enabled, an attacker can mark any unpaid invoice as paid and credit the associated client account without making an actual payment, by sending a single crafted HTTP request. Version 0.8.0 patches the issue. Some workarounds are available. Disable the Custom payment gateway if not actively needed and/or restrict access to `/ipn.php` at the web server level (e.g., via IP allowlisting), noting that this may interfere with legitimate payment callback processing.
