CVE-2026-55516: Snipe-IT vulnerable to cross-company asset maintenance re-parenting via API update
The API endpoint for updating asset maintenance records allows an authorized user to change the asset_id of an existing maintenance record to an asset outside their company scope.
In a Full Multiple Company Support / multi-company deployment, this allows a user from Company A to attach or move a maintenance record onto an asset belonging to Company B. The endpoint appears to authorize access to the existing maintenance record’s asset, but does not re-authorize the newly supplied asset_id before saving the update.
