Bugsink: Issue event views can show an event from another project if its UUID is known
GitHub lists this reviewed advisory for bugsink. Published version ranges and source prerequisites are shown below; this is not an inspection of a visitor’s application.
This report has not inspected your inventory, configuration, deployed build, reachability or evidence. A catalog listing and a severity score do not establish exposure or compromise.
01 / Meaning
Why it matters
Published affected context helps an owner decide what evidence to gather. This report has not examined your application.
3.1 low
GitHub source severity; exploitability and local consequence require separate evidence.

source listed< 2.2.0
### Description Bugsink issue event pages accept a direct event identifier from the URL and, in affected versions, look up that event without also requiring it to belong to the issue in the URL. This is a project-boundary authorization issue: a logged-in user with access to one project can view another project’s event data through an issue they are allowed to access. However, the issue is mitigated by two factors. First, the attacker needs to already know a valid target event UUID; there is no event enumeration path here, and guessing UUIDs is not practical. Second, Bugsink is commonly self-hosted within a single trust domain, and Hosted Bugsink gives each tenant a separate Bugsink instance, so cross-project access does not normally imply cross-tenant access. The affected views include the stacktrace, details, and breadcrumbs pages for an issue event. This has been fixed by requiring direct event lookups to match both the authorized issue and the project. ### Impact Low-severity cross-project event data exposure, requiring authentication and prior knowledge of a valid event UUID.
03 / Response
What to do next
- investigate
Identify the exact component and deployed version, examine the linked publisher’s conditions, and retain evidence of any mitigation.
Confirm current vendor support, compatibility and deployment evidence. This report has not tested a fix in your system. GitHub Advisory Database
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.
04 / Limits
What this report cannot establish
- Customer inventory, deployment, reachability and exploitation have not been inspected.
05 / Provenance
Sources you can inspect
Each assertion retains its source. Mirrored records may repeat one underlying publisher; additional links are not independent corroboration.
