{"apiVersion":"1.0","identifier":"CVE-2026-47227","description":"Admidio is an open-source user management solution. `modules/categories.php` checks that the supplied `type` parameter (`ANN`, `EVT`, `ROL`, `USF`, …) corresponds to a module the actor administers. The follow-up -is this specific category editable by me- check at lines 56-61 is dead code because it compares `$getType` (a category-type code) against mode names (`edit`/`save`/`delete`); the condition is permanently false, so `$category->isEditable()` is never invoked. Prior to version 5.0.10, the `delete`, `sequence`, and `save` switch cases load the category by the supplied UUID and act on it without re-checking that the category belongs to a module the actor administers. A user holding only one module-administrator right can therefore destroy or reorder empty categories belonging to *other* modules — for example, an announcements administrator can delete role categories, profile-field categories, or weblink categories that they have no right to touch. Version 5.0.10 fixes the issue.","publishedAt":"2026-08-12T14:17:53","lastModifiedAt":"2026-08-12T16:17:03","sourceUrl":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-47227","cvssScore":6.5,"cvssVector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N","epssProbability":0.00235,"riskScore":0.66,"affectedProduct":"Admidio","affectedVersions":"<5.0.10","vulnerabilityType":"Web app","operatingSystems":[],"links":{"self":"https://www.redsauce.net/api/cves/CVE-2026-47227","webPages":{"es":"https://www.redsauce.net/es/cves/CVE-2026-47227","en":"https://www.redsauce.net/en/cves/CVE-2026-47227","fr":"https://www.redsauce.net/fr/cves/CVE-2026-47227","pt":"https://www.redsauce.net/pt/cves/CVE-2026-47227","de":"https://www.redsauce.net/de/cves/CVE-2026-47227","sk":"https://www.redsauce.net/sk/cves/CVE-2026-47227","el":"https://www.redsauce.net/el/cves/CVE-2026-47227"},"source":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-47227"}}
