High CVSS 8.8
CVE-2026-61463
Shiori contains a privilege escalation vulnerability in the account update endpoint that allows authenticated users to modify the owner field without authorization checks. Attackers can escalate to administrator by submitting a crafted PATCH request with owner: true, then re-authenticate to obtain an admin JWT token granting full system access.
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
- Privilege handling is faulty, so an account ends up with more rights than intended.
- Likelihood
- Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.
