Attack profile from CVSS 3.1 · CNA. Fix status from CNA. Impact type from CWE-284.
Summary
Plane, an open-source project management tool from makeplane, is affected before 1.4.0. A user whose account was deactivated can still log in with existing credentials, and the login silently sets the account back to active, which is an improper access control flaw (CWE-284). A remote attacker with low privileges can reactivate a disabled account without user interaction, and the administrator is not notified. The impact is high confidentiality and integrity loss.

Description from the CNA
Plane is an open-source project management tool. Prior to 1.4.0, a user whose account has been deactivated by setting is_active=False can still log in with existing credentials. Successful authentication silently changes is_active back to True, reactivating the account without notifying the administrator. This issue is fixed in 1.4.0.
