Snipe-IT is an IT asset/license management system. Prior to 8.6.0, POST /account/request/{itemType}/{itemId}/{cancel_by_admin?}/{requestingUser?} accepts cancel_by_admin as a URL path segment without sufficient authorization, allowing an authenticated user to supply a victim user ID and silently cancel that user’s pending asset requests. This issue is fixed in version 8.6.0.
CVE-2026-55476
This medium-severity CVE scores 4.3 under NVD CVSS v3. EPSS exploit probability: 0.2%, top 90% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).
- Lower severity and no public exploit yet
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.
