CVE-2026-44736
CWE-200Published: June 26, 2026· Updated: Jun 27, 2026
Official Description
OpenProject is open-source, web-based project management software. Prior to 17.4.0, the GET /api/v3/relations endpoint allows any authenticated user to retrieve relations — and the subject (title) of work packages they have no permission to view — by supplying an arbitrary work package ID in the involved, fromId, or toId filter. This bypasses the Relation.visible scope due to a flawed performance optimization in RelationQuery. This vulnerability is fixed in 17.4.0.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2026-44736 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.
A successful exploit results in complete confidentiality breach (data exposure), with a CVSS base score of 6.5.
From a weakness classification perspective (CWE-200): Information exposure vulnerabilities leak sensitive data to unauthorized actors.
