9th percentile - higher than 9% of all known CVEs

Summary

Snipe-IT before version 8.7.0 fails to HTML-escape the employee_num field in the acceptance PDF generator, allowing attackers with users.edit permission to inject img tags into TCPDF's writeHTML() function. Attackers can craft a malicious employee_num value containing an img tag with an arbitrary HTTP(S) URL to trigger server-side requests to internal services, cloud metadata endpoints, or external targets when a victim signs an asset acceptance.

Risk Assessment

The risk includes unauthorized access to internal network resources, potential exfiltration of cloud metadata, and use of the server as a tool for SSRF attacks.

Recommendation

It is recommended to immediately upgrade Snipe-IT to version 8.7.0 or later, which includes the HTML escaping fix.
