CVE-2024-6534

Directus 10.13.0 - Insecure object reference via PATH presets

Published Aug 15, 2024 CVSS 3.1 · 4.3 Medium EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
Directus v10.13.0 allows an authenticated external attacker to modify presets created by the same user to assign them to another user. This is possible because the application only validates the user parameter in the 'POST /presets' request but not in the PATCH request. When chained with CVE-2024-6533, it could result in account takeover.
