CVE-2026-49870

Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.

Description

Snipe-IT is an IT asset/license management system. Prior to 8.6.1, POST /two-factor has no rate limiting, lockout, or attempt counter, allowing an attacker with valid credentials to submit unlimited TOTP guesses against the three accepted codes created by config/google2fa.php window=1. A successful guess creates a fully authenticated session. When two_factor_enabled is 1, POST /account/profile with two_factor_optin=0 can disable two-factor authentication without OTP reverification, while required mode 2 prevents that opt-out. An administrator can also use POST /api/v1/users/two_factor_reset to clear another user's secret. This issue is fixed in version 8.6.1.

      "value": "Snipe-IT es un sistema de gestión de activos/licencias de TI. Anterior a la versión 8.6.1, POST /two-factor no tiene limitación de velocidad, bloqueo o contador de intentos, permitiendo a un atacante con credenciales válidas enviar intentos ilimitados de TOTP contra los tres códigos aceptados creados por config/google2fa.php window=1. Un intento exitoso crea una sesión completamente autenticada. Cuando two_factor_enabled es 1, POST /account/profile con two_factor_optin=0 puede deshabilitar la autenticación de doble factor sin reverificación de OTP, mientras que el modo requerido 2 evita esa exclusión voluntaria. Un administrador también puede usar POST /api/v1/users/two_factor_reset para borrar el secreto de otro usuario. Este problema está solucionado en la versión 8.6.1."
