CVE-2026-42456
CWE-200Published: May 8, 2026· Updated: May 13, 2026
Official Description
AnythingLLM is an application that turns pieces of content into context that any LLM can use as references during chatting. Prior to version 1.12.1, GET /api/workspace/:slug/tts/:chatId in AnythingLLM returns the text-to-speech audio for another user's chat response within the same workspace because the route validates workspace membership but does not enforce ownership of the targeted chat row. As a result, an authenticated user can access another user's private assistant response in audio form if the chatId is known or guessed. This constitutes an insecure direct object reference (IDOR) affecting private chat response content exposed through the TTS endpoint. This issue has been patched in version 1.12.1.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2026-42456 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires low privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
From a weakness classification perspective (CWE-200): Information exposure vulnerabilities leak sensitive data to unauthorized actors.
