Attack profile from CVSS 3.1 · CNA. Fix status from CNA. Impact type from CWE-639.
Summary
Plane before 1.4.0 does not restrict bulk asset reassignment to the project named in the URL, an authorization bypass through a user-controlled key (CWE-639). A workspace Guest can supply asset IDs from another project in the same workspace and reassign them to an entity the attacker controls. Plane then treats the attacker's project as the owner and provides a presigned download URL for the hijacked file.

Description from the CNA
Plane is an open-source project management tool. Prior to 1.4.0, ProjectBulkAssetEndpoint.post in apps/api/plane/app/views/asset/v2.py retrieves assets using id__in=asset_ids and workspace__slug=slug but does not constrain the query with project_id from the URL. A workspace Guest can provide asset UUIDs from another project in the same workspace and reassign their issue_id, comment_id, page_id, draft_issue_id, or project_id to an entity the attacker controls. Plane then treats the attacker's project as the new owner and provides a presigned download URL for the hijacked file. This issue is fixed in 1.4.0.
