CVE-2023-28632: GLPI vulnerable to account takeover by authenticated user

• Severity: high (CVSS 8.1 v3.1)
• Exploited in the wild: not listed in CISA KEV
• EPSS: 0.7% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days
• Public exploit or detection template: none known
• Published: 2023-04-05 · updated 2026-06-17
• Weakness: CWE-269

Description

GLPI is a free asset and IT management software package. Starting in version 0.83 and prior to versions 9.5.13 and 10.0.7, an authenticated user can modify emails of any user, and can therefore takeover another user account through the "forgotten password" feature. By modifying emails, the user can also receive sensitive data through GLPI notifications. Versions 9.5.13 and 10.0.7 contain a patch for this issue. As a workaround, account takeover can be prevented by deactivating all notifications related to `Forgotten password?` event. However, it will not prevent unauthorized modification of any user emails.

Affected products

• glpi-project glpi: from 0.83 before 9.5.13; from 10.0.0 before 10.0.7 — fixed in 10.0.7, 9.5.13

How to fix

Upgrade to a fixed version: glpi-project glpi 10.0.7, 9.5.13. Check the vendor advisory for mitigations.
