Vulnerability details
The vulnerability allows a remote user to disclose sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to authorization bypass through a user-controlled key in the TrackEAttempt API collection endpoint when handling crafted GET requests with user-controlled filters. A remote user can query /api/track_e_attempts with another user's identifier to disclose sensitive information.
The issue affects collection results because only the single-item access path is voter-protected, while collection members are not scoped to the requesting user.
