admidio/admidio
source listedECOSYSTEM: introduced 0; fixed 5.0.9
## Summary The Admidio inventory module enforces authorization for destructive operations (delete, retire, reinstate) only in the UI layer by conditionally rendering buttons. The backend POST handlers at `modules/inventory.php` for `item_delete`, `item_retire`, `item_reinstate`, `item_picture_upload`, `item_picture_save`, and `item_picture_delete` perform CSRF validation but never check whether the requesting user is an inventory administrator. Any authenticated user who can access the inventory module can permanently delete any inventory item and all its associated data. ## Details The inventory module applies a module-level access control check at `modules/inventory.php:65-72` that determines whether a user can access the inventory module at all, based on the `inventory_module_enabled` setting. In the default configuration (value `2`), any logged-in user passes this check. The `item_delete` handler at lines 381-397 only validates the CSRF token: ```php // modules/inventory.php:381-397 case 'item_delete': // check the CSRF token of the form against the session token SecurityUtils::validateCsrfToken($_POST['adm_csrf_token']); if (count($getItemUUIDs) > 0) {

What to do next
- vendor patch
The original advisory lists fixed boundaries 5.0.9 for admidio/admidio. Confirm the publisher’s latest guidance.
Confirm current vendor support, compatibility and deployment evidence. This report has not tested a fix in your system. GitHub Advisory Database via OSV
- investigate
Identify the exact component and deployed version, examine the linked publisher’s conditions, and retain evidence of any mitigation.

A fixed release is not deployment evidence.
Check current vendor support and compatibility. After making a change, verify the deployed build and relevant runtime conditions. Keep the evidence, owner and time. An updated lockfile alone does not prove what is running.
