Tuleap is an Open Source Suite to improve management of software developments and collaboration. Backlog item representations do not verify the permissions of the child trackers. Users might see tracker names they should not have access to. This vulnerability is fixed in Tuleap Community Edition 16.11.99.1757427600 and Tuleap Enterprise Edition 16.11-6 and 16.10-8.

Weakness

The product does not handle or incorrectly handles when it has insufficient privileges to access resources or functionality as specified by their permissions. This may cause it to follow unexpected code paths that may leave the product in an invalid state.

Potential Mitigations

  • Compartmentalize the system to have “safe” areas where trust boundaries can be unambiguously drawn. Do not allow sensitive data to go outside of the trust boundary and always be careful when interfacing with a compartment outside of the safe area.
  • Ensure that appropriate compartmentalization is built into the system design, and the compartmentalization allows for and reinforces privilege separation functionality. Architects and designers should rely on the principle of least privilege to decide the appropriate time to use privileges and the time to drop privileges.
