ETK-2026-4252Zero's internal tracking ID, independent of the CVE number.
validatedZero produced an exploit or a check.description
Apostrophe versions through 4.34.0 can allow lower-privileged users to access and modify documents in content types whose viewRole should exclude them. This requires a type where the caller meets its editRole but not its viewRole, such as a contributor-accessible edit role paired with an administrator-only view role.
mitigation
Upgrade apostrophe to version 4.34.1 or later. Until upgraded, configure affected types so their editRole is at least as restrictive as their viewRole and review contributor access.
fixed in 4.34.1
outcome
Contextual check: a technique exists and was validated, but no deterministic check could cover this one.
