CVE-2026-40600 (GCVE-0-2026-40600)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-04-30 18:22 – Updated: 2026-04-30 18:51

Title
Chartbrew: Incorrect Access Control in project share policy routes via unbound policy_id
Summary
Chartbrew is an open-source web application that can connect directly to databases and APIs and use the data to create charts. In version 4.9.0, Chartbrew allows authenticated users with access to one project to update or delete a SharePolicy record that belongs to a different project. The affected routes authorize the caller against the project in the URL path, but they never verify that policy_id belongs to that project. This permits cross-project modification of dashboard sharing rules, including visibility, password requirements, allowed parameters, and expiration settings. This issue has been patched in version 5.0.0.

CVE-2026-40591 (GCVE-0-2026-40591)

Title
FreeScout: Improper Authorization in Phone Conversation Creation Enables Cross-Mailbox Hidden Customer Modification
Summary
FreeScout is a free self-hosted help desk and shared mailbox. Prior to version 1.8.214, the phone-conversation creation flow accepts attacker-controlled `customer_id`, `name`, `to_email`, and `phone` values and resolves the target customer in the backend without enforcing mailbox-scoped customer visibility. As a result, a low-privileged agent who can create a phone conversation in Mailbox A can bind the new Mailbox A phone conversation to a hidden customer from Mailbox B and add a new alias email to that hidden customer record by supplying `to_email`. Version 1.8.214 fixes the vulnerability.

Title
FreeScout's Customer AJAX Create Modifies Hidden Existing Customer
Summary
FreeScout is a free self-hosted help desk and shared mailbox. Prior to version 1.8.214, the Change Customer modal exposes a “Create a new customer” flow via POST /customers/ajax with action=create. Under limited visibility, the endpoint drops unique-email validation. If the supplied email already belongs to a hidden customer, Customer::create() reuses that hidden customer object and fills empty profile fields from attacker-controlled input. Version 1.8.214 fixes the vulnerability.

Mitigation
Architecture and Design

For each and every data access, ensure that the user has sufficient privilege to access the record that is being requested.

Mitigation
Architecture and Design Implementation

Make sure that the key that is used in the lookup of a specific user's record is not controllable externally by the user or that any tampering can be detected.

Mitigation
Architecture and Design

Use encryption in order to make it more difficult to guess other legitimate values of the key or associate a digital signature with the key so that the server can verify that there has been no tampering.

No CAPEC attack patterns related to this CWE.
