Leantime is a lean open source project management system. Starting in version 2.3.21, an authenticated user with commenting privileges can inject malicious Javascript into a comment. Once the malicious comment is loaded in the browser by a user, the malicious Javascript code executes. As of time of publication, a patch does not exist.

Leantime 3.0.6 is vulnerable to Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF). This vulnerability allows malicious actors to perform unauthorized actions on behalf of authenticated users, specifically administrators.

Leantime is an open source project management system. Prior to 3.10.0, for the provisionally grouped account-creation and plugin-management surfaces, Leantime's JSON-RPC dispatcher in app/Domain/Api/Controllers/Jsonrpc.php exposes public API service methods, while PermissionEnforcer::enforce allows methods that lack a RequiresPermission attribute. A low-privilege authenticated user with an ordinary browser session can send the required X-Requested-With: XMLHttpRequest header and call leantime.rpc.api.api.createApiKeyWithProjects, which reaches Api::createApiKeyWithProjects, with an attacker-chosen role to create an interactive administrator account. The same missing per-method authorization exposes Plugins::installPlugin, Plugins::enablePlugin, Plugins::disablePlugin, and Plugins::removePlugin to ordinary authenticated users, permitting unauthorized plugin management. The complete provisionally grouped issue is fixed in version 3.10.0.

Leantime before versions 2.0.15 and 2.1-beta3 has a SQL Injection vulnerability. The impact is high. Malicious users/attackers can execute arbitrary SQL queries negatively affecting the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the site. Attackers can exfiltrate data like the users' and administrators' password hashes, modify data, or drop tables. The unescaped parameter is "searchUsers" when sending a POST request to "/tickets/showKanban" with a valid session. In the code, the parameter is named "users" in class.tickets.php. This issue is fixed in versions 2.0.15 and 2.1.0 beta 3.

Leantime 3.6.2 contains a cross-site request forgery vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to perform state-changing actions on behalf of authenticated users by excluding the Laravel VerifyCsrfToken middleware from the global middleware stack in app/Http/Kernel.php. Attackers can craft malicious pages delivered via phishing emails or malicious websites to trigger unauthorized POST, PUT, and DELETE requests that create or delete projects, modify settings, and change permissions as any authenticated user.

Cross Site Scripting vulnerability in Leantime v3.0.6 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via upload of crafted PDF file to the files/browse endpoint.

Leantime 3.6.2 and prior contains a broken access control vulnerability that allows authenticated users to read milestone data from projects they are not assigned to by supplying arbitrary integer milestone IDs to the tickets.getMilestone JSON-RPC endpoint. Attackers can enumerate integer milestone IDs through the JSON-RPC API to access project planning information, milestone titles, descriptions, and timelines across all projects on the instance regardless of project membership.

Summary

HTML can be arbitrarily injected into emails from Leantime due to improper neutralization of HTML tags in users' first names. This effectively allows for the creation of phishing emails from a Leantime instance's email address.

Leantime is an open source project management system. A 'userId' variable in app/domain/files/repositories/class.files.php is not parameterized. An authenticated attacker can send a carefully crafted POST request to /api/jsonrpc to exploit an SQL injection vulnerability. Confidentiality is impacted as it allows for dumping information from the database. This issue has been addressed in version 2.4-beta-4. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.

In Leantime 3.0.6, a Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability exists within the ticket creation and modification functionality, allowing attackers to inject malicious JavaScript code into the title field of tickets (also known as to-dos). This stored XSS vulnerability can be exploited to perform Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) attacks.

Cross Site Scripting vulnerability in Leantime 3.0.6 allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code via the to-do title parameter.

Leantime 3.0.6 is vulnerable to HTML Injection via /dashboard/show#/tickets/newTicket.

A vulnerability has been found in Leantime up to 3.8.0. This impacts the function editUser/addUser of the component JSON-RPC Endpoint. The manipulation of the argument role leads to improper authorization. The attack is possible to be carried out remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
