Description from the CNA
Admidio from 5.0.11 before 5.0.16 contains a broken access control vulnerability in modules/inventory/inventory_data.php that allows authenticated users to bypass the inventory_module_enabled restriction. Attackers with any valid login can request the DataTables JSON feed to read every inventory item and keeper names, even when the module is disabled.
