## What is CVE-2026-76237?

CVE-2026-76237 is a high-severity missing authorization vulnerability in eidetic-labs stigmem-node, published on 19 Aug 2026. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.

### Official description

stigmem-node before 0.9.0a12 contains a broken object level authorization (cross-tenant BOLA) vulnerability in the quarantine review endpoints. On multi-tenant deployments running the opt-in stigmem-plugin-multi-tenant, the list/count queries and _get_quarantined_fact in routes/quarantine.py lacked a tenant_id predicate and the garden lookup was not tenant-scoped, allowing a tenant administrator with only a plain tenant write capability to list, read, and admit or reject quarantined facts belonging to other tenants via the /v1/quarantine endpoints. Default single-tenant deployments are not affected.

Weakness: CWE-639 (Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key)
