• Exploited in the wild: not listed in CISA KEV
• EPSS: 0.2% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days
• Public exploit or detection template: yes

• Weakness: CWE-862

Description

Kimai is an open-source time tracking application. Prior to version 2.54.0, the Team API endpoints use #[IsGranted('edit_team')] instead of #[IsGranted('edit', 'team')], causing Symfony TeamVoter to abstain from voting. This removes entity-level ownership checks on team operations, allowing any user with the edit_team permission to modify any team, not just teams they are authorized to manage. This issue has been patched in version 2.54.0.

Affected products

• kimai: before 2.54.0 — fixed in 2.54.0

How to fix

Upgrade to a fixed version: kimai 2.54.0. Check the vendor advisory for mitigations.
