Last modified

CVE-2026-116198 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 4.3/10 on the CVSS scale. Snipe-IT before 8.7.0 contains a missing encryption vulnerability in Api\AssetsController::store that writes plaintext into encrypted-flagged custom-field columns when callers lack assets.view.encrypted_custom_fields. Authenticated API users without that permission can create assets whose sensitive custom-field values persist unencrypted in the database, exposing them through backups, replicas, or direct database access.. EPSS estimates a 0.08% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
