OpenProject is an open-source, web-based project management software. In version 16.6.1 and below, a registered administrator can execute arbitrary commands by configuring the sendmail binary path and sending a test email. This issue has been patched in version 16.6.2.
- CVE-2017-11667High
OpenProject before 6.1.6 and 7.x before 7.0.3 mishandles session expiry, allowing remote attackers to perform APIv3 requests indefinitely by leveraging a hijacked session.
- CVE-2026-52785Critical
OpenProject before versions 17.3.3 and 17.4.1 contains a SQL injection vulnerability in the timestamps functionality. Attackers can exploit the timestamps parameter to execute unauthorized database queries.
- CVE-2026-52782Critical
In OpenProject prior to versions 17.3.3 and 17.4.1, an IDOR vulnerability exists in the endpoint /projects/<A>/settings/project_storages/<A_ps_id> via the PATCH parameter "storages_project_storage[project_folder_id]". A project administrator can hijack the managed Nextcloud or OneDrive folder of another project on the same storage, leading to unauthorized resource access.
- CVE-2026-46386Critical
The official openproject/openproject Docker image ships with a default SECRET_KEY_BASE=OVERWRITE_ME, which combined with cookies_serializer = :marshal allows any logged-in user a deterministic Marshal-deserialization path via the /my/two_factor_devices cookie reader. This vulnerability is fixed in a later version.
- CVE-2026-34717Critical
OpenProject prior to version 17.2.3 has an SQL injection vulnerability in the =n operator in modules/reporting/lib/report/operator.rb:177. This operator embeds user input directly into SQL WHERE clauses without parameterization.
- CVE-2026-22600Critical
OpenProject before version 16.6.4 contains a Local File Read vulnerability in the work package PDF export. By uploading a specially crafted SVG file (disguised as PNG) as an attachment, an attacker can exploit the ImageMagick engine to read arbitrary local files accessible to the application user.
- CVE-2026-55095Medium
OpenProject is open-source, web-based project management software. In version 17.5.1 and earlier, an authenticated non-admin project member can request the inplace-edit dialog for a raw custom_field_ project attribute. The dialog path resolves the project custom field by its raw identifier without enforcing the normal admin_only visibility scope and renders the stored custom-field comment in read-only mode. This discloses hidden comment text but does not disclose the custom-field value or permit writes or mutation. This issue is reported as fixed in version 17.6.0.
- CVE-2026-67529Medium
OpenProject before 17.6.0 in GET /api/v3/time_entries and GET /api/v3/cost_entries exposed private work package titles and IDs without visibility checks. Users with view_time_entries or view_cost_entries could read this data.
- CVE-2026-67528Medium
OpenProject before 17.6.0 in GET /api/v3/custom_options/:id resolved custom options by global numeric ID without visibility checks. Authenticated non-admin users could enumerate IDs and read labels of admin-only options.
Original NVD description (English source)
