CVE-2026-77140
Last modified
CVE-2026-77140 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 8.7/10 on the CVSS scale. The extension validates the HMAC of a frontend employee edit link only in the action that renders the edit form, not in the action that persists the change. An unauthenticated visitor who knows the UID of a visible employee record can send a direct POST request to the update action and overwrite that record without a valid edit link or any ownership check.. EPSS estimates a 0.24% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
