CVE-2026-54676
MediumCVSS 6.5Summary
Scoold is a Q&A and knowledge sharing platform for teams. Prior to 1.69.0, users with personal API tokens can retrieve replies from questions in private spaces they cannot access because ApiController.getPostReplies() does not apply canAccessSpace before returning data from GET /api/posts/{id}/answers. The issue is reachable when scoold.api_user_access_enabled and scoold.api_enabled are true and a token holder knows or enumerates a private question identifier. Under those conditions, the question endpoint can deny access while the answers endpoint returns the private reply bodies.
Risk Assessment
This exposes confidential team or project discussions, potentially leading to information leakage.
Recommendation
Update Scoold to version 1.69.0, which contains the fix for this issue.
Other vulnerabilities in Scoold
See all- CVE-2026-54677Medium
Scoold is a Q&A and knowledge sharing platform for teams. Prior to 1.69.0, authenticated users who are not members of a private space can create content in questions belonging to that space because QuestionController.reply() and CommentController.createAjax() do not apply the canAccessSpace authorization check used by the question read path. With scoold.is_default_space_public set to false and private spaces in use, a user with a valid session and a known or enumerable question identifier can send requests to POST /question/{id} and POST /comment, causing replies and comments to be stored in a thread the user cannot read.
- CVE-2026-39354Medium
Scoold, a Q&A and knowledge sharing platform for teams, has an authorization flaw that allows any logged-in, low-privilege user to overwrite another user's existing question by supplying its public ID as the postId parameter. This affects versions prior to 1.66.2.
- CVE-2026-34832Medium

Original NVD description (English source)
Scoold is a Q&A and a knowledge sharing platform for teams. Prior to 1.69.0, users with personal API tokens can retrieve replies from questions in private spaces they cannot access because src/main/java/com/erudika/scoold/api/ApiController.java in ApiController.getPostReplies() does not apply canAccessSpace before returning data from GET /api/posts/{id}/answers. The issue is reachable when scoold.api_user_access_enabled and scoold.api_enabled are true and a token holder knows or enumerates a private question identifier. Under those conditions, the question endpoint can deny access while the answers endpoint returns the private reply bodies, exposing confidential team or project discussions. This issue is fixed in version 1.69.0.
