Vulnerability in Snipe-IT (CVE-2026-86759)
Summary
Vulnerability in Snipe-IT (CVE-2026-86759). Data can be tampered with by attackers. Exploitable via POST /hardware/history.
Original description
The description as published by the source.
Snipe-IT versions before 8.7.0 fail to authorize the POST /hardware/history endpoint, allowing any authenticated user to reassign arbitrary assets and modify audit logs. Attackers can submit a CSV file to reassign assets across companies and inject fraudulent audit trail entries, compromising inventory integrity and accountability.

Attack vector: remote (network-reachable) / no user interaction
Attack surface: POST /hardware/history
Plan: 1) Audit SBOM/dependencies, 2) Stage→prod upgrade, 3) Add WAF/proxy monitoring on affected endpoints, 4) Hunt IOCs in logs.
Refs: see the GHSA / vendor advisory / patched release linked on this page.
A vulnerability (CWE-862) exists in Snipe-IT. Attackers reach the vulnerable code path via POST /hardware/history.
Check the vendor advisory for the affected versions of Snipe-IT. Attack surface: POST /hardware/history.
Severity: High (CVSS 7.1/10). Data can be tampered with by attackers.
Update to the patched release per vendor advisory.
Until the patch is applied: disable the affected feature, apply WAF rules, or restrict access via network ACLs.

Response actions
Concrete steps and command examples for SOC/SRE teams to execute in order
-
1Identify exposure identify
grep -r 'Snipe-IT' . | grep -v node_modulesリポジトリと本番環境の依存ファイル (package-lock.json / requirements.txt / go.sum / Gemfile.lock 等) で
Snipe-ITを grep し、稼働しているサービス・バージョンを把握する。 -
2Hunt for indicators of compromise detect
grep 'POST /hardware/history' /var/log/nginx/access.log | grep -E '(unusual_payload|sqli_pattern)'アクセスログで
POST /hardware/historyへの異常なリクエスト (不正な認証ヘッダ・SQLメタ文字)を過去 30〜90日分捜索。WAF/SIEM があれば該当パスのアラート発火履歴を確認。 -
3Post-deployment verification verify
Replay attack against POST /hardware/history on staging to confirm patch closes the vectorパッチ適用後、ステージングで PoC または同等の悪用パターンを再現して脆弱性が閉じたことを確認。本番では Step 2 と同じログクエリでアラート再発が無いか継続監視。
