High CVSS 8.8
CVE-2026-18258
Authorization bypass in the Line, LineTranscription, VirtualCollection, tag and process API endpoints in Scripta/eScriptorium through 26.04.1 allows a remote authenticated user to read, modify and delete other users' transcription content via primary keys supplied in the request body, which are queried against the global model manager instead of the request-scoped queryset
What this means
- Exposure
- Exploitable remotely over the network, with an ordinary user account and with no action from the victim.
- Impact
- An attacker can read sensitive data, modify or destroy data and take the service offline.
- Weakness
- Changing an identifier in the request grants access to another user’s data.
- Likelihood
- Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.
