Attack profile from CVSS 3.1 · CNA. Fix status from CNA. Impact type from CWE-639.
Summary
Immich versions before 3.0.0 are affected. The GET /api/map/markers endpoint applies archive visibility to every selected owner when archived assets are requested, which conflicts with how partner owner identifiers are added, a flaw cited as CWE-639. A remote user with low privileges and a view-only partner connection can enumerate the GPS coordinates and existence of a sharer's archived photos and videos, although image bytes remain protected.

Description from the CNA
Immich is a high-performance self-hosted photo and video management solution. Prior to 3.0.0, GET /api/map/markers used server/src/services/map.service.ts to add partner owner identifiers when withPartners=true, while server/src/repositories/map.repository.ts applied Archive visibility to every selected owner when isArchived=true. A view-only partner could therefore enumerate the GPS coordinates and existence of a sharer's archived photos or videos even though the timeline and direct-access paths exclude archived partner assets. The exposure is limited to location metadata and asset identifiers because image bytes remain protected by checkPartnerAccess. This issue is fixed in version 3.0.0.
