Short explanation
Admidio version 5.0.10 before allows module administrators to delete or reorder categories from other modules due to a dead authorization check in `modules/categories.php`. The vulnerability is medium severity with CVSS 3.1 score of 6.5. Patch status is UNKNOWN based on available evidence.
This allows attackers to manipulate module-specific data structures, potentially leading to data loss or service disruption. The issue affects only specific module categories, not the entire system.
What should be done?
- Upgrade to Admidio 5.0.10 or later to resolve the vulnerability.
- Follow vendor advisories for patch details without assuming a fixed version.
The sources give limited detail on some technical conditions. Review the chain of evidence below before deciding how to act.
Chain of evidence and sources
Admidio'nun modül yönetici özelliği, `modules/categories.php` dosyasındaki bir izin kontrolünün ölümü nedeniyle, 5.0.10 sürümüne kadar diğer modüllerin kategorilerini doğrudan silme veya sıralama yapmasına izin verir.
Açık, `type` parametresinin doğrulama sürecinde ortaya çıkar ve yalnızca bir modül yönetici yetkisi olan bir kullanıcı, diğer modüllerin kategorilerine etki ederken istismar edilir.
Sorun, Admidio 5.0.10 sürümünde, eylemler gerçekleştirilemeden önce kategori sahibi doğrulamasının yeniden uygulanmasıyla çözülmüştür.
Show the technical text from the sources
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.
