GHSA-rvmm-v933-jgxq
ChartsController::actionGetNewUsersData() at /actions/charts/get-new-users-data is missing a requirePermission('viewUsers') authorization check. Any authenticated control panel user, regardless of permissions beyond accessCp, can POST to this endpoint to receive time-series user registration counts for the entire site or for an arbitrary user group ID.
The viewUsers permission is consistently required throughout the control panel before exposing user-related data, but this action enforces only the base accessCp check inherited from the framework.
Each call returns the total count of users who joined the specified group in the requested period.
Impact
Any control panel user with only accessCp permission can obtain the total number of registered users and their registration date distribution across any time window.
In installations with multiple editor roles, this allows a low-privilege control panel user to infer user group sizes and registration trends that would normally require the viewUsers permission to access.
No user PII (name, email, password) is disclosed; only aggregate counts and timestamps are returned. Confidentiality impact is low. No integrity or availability impact.
The vulnerability can be exploited over the network without needing physical access. It is easy for an attacker to exploit this vulnerability. An attacker needs basic access or low-level privileges. No user interaction is needed for the attacker to exploit this vulnerability.
Limited exploitation activity has been observed. Close monitoring and planned remediation are recommended.
Probability that this vulnerability will be exploited in the wild within the next 30 days.
