CVE-2026-55478

Snipe-IT is an IT asset/license management system. Prior to 8.6.2, POST /api/v1/kits/{kit_id}/licenses checks whether the caller can edit kits but does not authorize access to the referenced license object, allowing a low-privilege user with predefined-kit permissions to bind a license they should not be able to access or manage into a kit. This issue is fixed in version 8.6.2.

Summary		(es) Snipe-IT es un sistema de gestión de activos/licencias de TI. Antes de la 8.6.2, POST /API/v1/kits/{kit_id}/licenses verifica si el llamador puede editar kits pero no autoriza el acceso al objeto de licencia referenciado, permitiendo que un usuario con bajos privilegios con permisos de kit predefinidos vincule una licencia a la que no debería poder acceder o gestionar en un kit. Este problema está solucionado en la versión 8.6.2.
