dolibarr: Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key
CVE-2026-125754 is a high-severity authorization bypass through user-controlled key vulnerability in dolibarr, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.1 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an attacker with a low-privileged account, without any action from a user. The record lists version 24.0.2 as the first without the flaw, so updating dolibarr to that release or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.22% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.
High severity with no evidence of exploitation so far.
What to do
- Update dolibarr to 24.0.2 or a later version.

Official description
Dolibarr 20.0.0 through 23.0.4 and 24.x before 24.0.2 contains an insecure direct object reference vulnerability in api_expensereports.class.php payment endpoints that lets authenticated users access other users' expense report payments. Attackers with only expense report read and create rights can call getAllPayments, getPayments, addPayment, or updatePayment to read, create, or modify payments, falsifying reimbursement state.

The underlying weakness: Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key
The system's authorization functionality does not prevent one user from gaining access to another user's data or record by modifying the key value identifying the data.
How developers prevent this class of flaw
- For each and every data access, ensure that the user has sufficient privilege to access the record that is being requested.
- Make sure that the key that is used in the lookup of a specific user's record is not controllable externally by the user or that any tampering can be detected.
- Use encryption in order to make it more difficult to guess other legitimate values of the key or associate a digital signature with the key so that the server can verify that there has been no tampering.
