Attack profile from CVSS 4.0 · CNA. Fix status from CNA. Impact type from CWE-862.
Summary
Plane before 1.4.0 has a missing authorization check in its entity search endpoint, tracked as CWE-862. The endpoint does not verify workspace membership before returning results. Any authenticated user who knows a workspace slug can retrieve member display names, UUIDs, avatar URLs and project member records, even when they are not a member of that workspace.

Description from the CNA
Plane is an open-source project management tool. Prior to 1.4.0, GET /api/workspaces/{slug}/entity-search/?query_type=user_mention returns workspace-member display names, UUIDs, and avatar URLs to any authenticated user who knows the workspace slug, even when the caller is not a workspace member. The endpoint also exposes ProjectMember rows under the same condition. SearchEndpoint in apps/api/plane/app/views/search/base.py inherits BaseAPIView with only permission_classes = [IsAuthenticated] and performs no workspace-membership check. This issue is fixed in 1.4.0.
