Summary
Type: Insecure Direct Object Reference. The project CRUD endpoints (GET / PATCH / DELETE /workspaces/{workspace_id}/projects/{project_id} and GET .../{project_id}/stats) gate access on require_workspace_member(workspace_id) only, then resolve project_id through ProjectService.get(project_id) / update(project_id, ...) / delete(project_id) / get_stats(project_id). None of these calls thread workspace_id through to constrain the lookup. A user who is a member of any workspace W1 can read, modify, delete, or read stats for projects that belong to a different workspace W2.
File: src/praisonai-platform/praisonai_platform/services/project_service.py, lines 47-108; route handlers at src/praisonai-platform/praisonai_platform/api/routes/projects.py, lines 51-108.
Root cause: identical to the agent and issue IDORs in this codebase. The route accepts workspace_id from URL, uses it solely for the membership gate, then calls ProjectService.get(project_id) which is session.get(Project, project_id) — a primary-key-only lookup with no workspace_id predicate. update and delete call self.get(project_id) first, inheriting the gap. get_stats likewise has no workspace check.

@router.get("/{project_id}/stats")
async def project_stats(...):
return await svc.get_stats(project_id) # <-- returns stats for any project in the DB
Why it's wrong: workspace_id from the route is treated as a UI hint (gates "are you in some workspace W?") rather than an authoritative predicate (should also gate "is the project you are addressing actually inside W?"). The MemberService in this same codebase uses a composite (workspace_id, user_id) key and demonstrates the safe pattern; the project service simply did not apply it.
Exploit Chain
- Attacker registers a workspace
W_attacker(where they are a member) and harvests a target project UUIDP_T. Project IDs leak through the activity feed (act_svc.logrecordsentity_id), issue records (every issue carriesproject_id), webhook payloads, error messages, exported issue dumps, or operator screenshots. State: attacker holdsP_T. - Attacker authenticates and sends
GET /workspaces/W_attacker/projects/P_T.require_workspace_member(W_attacker, attacker)passes. State: control flow entersget_projectwithworkspace_id=W_attacker, project_id=P_T. ProjectService.get(P_T)runssession.get(Project, "P_T"), which isSELECT * FROM projects WHERE id = 'P_T' LIMIT 1with noworkspace_idfilter. The row is returned:title,description(often the project's confidential roadmap),status,lead_type,lead_id,icon,created_at,workspace_id(the foreign workspace's UUID is itself disclosed). State: response body is the JSON-serialised foreign project.- Attacker repeats with
PATCH /workspaces/W_attacker/projects/P_Tand{"title": "<reset>", "description": "<wiped>", "status": "archived"}.update_projectcallssvc.update(P_T, ...)and mutates the foreign row. State: target project is silently re-titled, re-described, and archived. - Attacker calls
DELETE /workspaces/W_attacker/projects/P_Tto delete the foreign project entirely. State: target project is gone (every issue still referencing it now has a danglingproject_id). - Attacker calls
GET /workspaces/W_attacker/projects/P_T/statsto read aggregate issue counts (open/closed/in-progress) for the foreign project — useful for competitive intelligence even when full-issue read is not possible. - Final state: any attacker with one workspace-member token can enumerate, exfiltrate, rewrite, and delete every project in the multi-tenant deployment given the project UUIDs.
Security Impact
Severity: sec-high. CVSS: network attack, low complexity, low privileges, no user interaction, scope unchanged, high confidentiality (project content + cross-workspace metadata via the leaked workspace_id field), high integrity (arbitrary writes / deletes), no availability claim (issue rows survive parent-project deletion).
Attacker capability: read, edit, archive, delete, and stats-fingerprint any project in the multi-tenant deployment given the project UUID. Beyond plain content disclosure, the response also includes workspace_id, allowing the attacker to map the deployment's workspace topology (which workspaces exist, which projects each owns).
Preconditions: praisonai-platform is deployed multi-tenant; the attacker has any membership token; the target project's UUID is known or guessable.
Differential: source-inspection-verified end-to-end. The asymmetry between ProjectService.get(project_id) (no workspace check) and MemberService.get(workspace_id, user_id) (composite key check) confirms the gap. With the suggested fix below, ProjectService.get(workspace_id, project_id) returns None for foreign-workspace projects and the route handler returns 404.
Suggested Fix
Same shape as the companion agent and issue advisories. Make the resource-lookup query include the workspace predicate; treat foreign-workspace rows as 404.

Update the route handlers in routes/projects.py to thread workspace_id through every call. The same single-key-lookup pattern is filed separately for AgentService, IssueService, CommentService, and LabelService.
