Description
Summary
ZITADEL's Organization V2Beta API contains Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR) vulnerabilities that allow authenticated users with specific administrator roles within one organization to access and modify data belonging to other organizations.
Impact
ZITADEL's Organization V2Beta API, intended for managing ZITADEL organizations, contains multiple endpoints that fail to properly authorize authenticated users. An attacker with an administrator role for a specific organization could exploit this to bypass access controls and perform unauthorized actions on other organizations within the same ZITADEL instance.
This could allow an attacker to:
• Read organization data, including the name, domains and metadata.
• Manipulate (modify) the corresponding organization data.
• Delete the corresponding data, up to and including the entire organization.
Note that this vulnerability is limited to organization-level data (name, domains, metadata). No other related data (such as users, projects, applications, etc.) is affected.
Affected Versions
Systems running one of the following versions are affected:
• v4.x: `4.0.0-rc.1` through `4.6.2`
Patches
The vulnerability has been addressed in the latest release. The patch resolves the issue by correctly validating the caller's permission against the target organization.
• v4.x: Upgrade to version 4.6.3 or later.
Workarounds
Upgrading to a patched version is the recommended solution.
If an immediate upgrade is not possible, mitigation can be achieved by disabling the affected Organization V2Beta API endpoints (e.g., /v2beta/organizations/...) at a reverse proxy or Web Application Firewall (WAF) level.
