Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-108796 exists.\n\nAffected product: ZKTeco BioTime. 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-2026-108796/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-108796/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-108796","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-108796/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-108796","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-p9r4-cx92-c3hf"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass","data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Biometric time attendance","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Remote attackers can bypass authorization on the biometric data endpoint by manipulating the employee code argument, potentially accessing sensitive biometric records.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"VulDB","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:X","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-639","name":"Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key"},{"id":"CWE-285","name":"Improper Authorization"}],"description":"A flaw has been found in ZKTeco BioTime 9.5.6 Build 20260130.3206.
