Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2017-0896 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Zulip Server. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-0896/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-0896/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-0896","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-0896/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-0896","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-98x3-p3h4-w982"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Zulip chat server","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated users can bypass invite restrictions to add members to a Zulip organization when the admin-only setting is enabled.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"hackerone","cpe":[{"product":"zulip_server","vendor":"zulip"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-862","name":"Missing Authorization"},{"id":"CWE-285","name":"Improper Authorization"}],"description":"Zulip Server 1.5.1 and below suffer from an error in the implementation of the invite_by_admins_only setting in the Zulip group chat application server that allowed an authenticated user to invite other users to join a Zulip organization even if the organization was configured to prevent this.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Missing authorization in Zulip Server","id":"CVE-2017-0896","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"missing_authorization","year":"2017"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Weak cryptography in ExpressionEngine","id":"CVE-2017-0897"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Information disclosure in Nextcloud Server","id":"CVE-2017-0895"},"products":["Zulip Server"],"published":"2017-06-02","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-18933","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-11-21"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-15070","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-08-21"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Missing authorization in Zulip Server","id":"CVE-2017-0910","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-11-27"},{"cvss_score":8.2,"headline":"Zulip Authentication Backend Configuration Bypass","id":"CVE-2025-31478","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-04-16"},{"cvss_score":8.2,"headline":"Cross-site scripting vulnerability in Zulip Server development branch via topic tooltip","id":"CVE-2023-33186","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-05-30"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2024-36612","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-11-29"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-14215","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-08-21"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-05","vendors":["Zulip"]},"summary":"Authenticated users can bypass invite restrictions to add members to a Zulip organization when the admin-only setting is enabled.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-0896/"}
