CVE-2026-121560
LogChimp 0.9.0-alpha.1 before 0.9.3 contains an authorization bypass vulnerability that allows authenticated post authors to modify any other post by supplying mismatched postId and id body parameters. Attackers can set postId to their own post and id to an enumerated victim post UUID to overwrite its title, slug, content, boardId and roadmap_id.
Executive briefing
The source record describes: LogChimp 0.9.0-alpha.1 before 0.9.3 contains an authorization bypass vulnerability that allows authenticated post authors to modify any other post by supplying mismatched postId and id body parameters. Attackers can set postId to their own post and id to an enumerated victim post UUID to overwrite its title, slug, content, boardId and roadmap_id. The practical risk depends on whether an affected product/version is present, reachable and configured in an exploitable way. Review the affected-product evidence and linked vendor advisories before assigning exposure status.
Evidence confidence: Limited Evidence-derived, not an exploitability verdict

Technical explanation & impact
The technical mechanism is not expanded beyond the source description unless a referenced advisory supplies additional evidence. Read the linked vendor/CERT advisories for root-cause detail.
Potential impact must be interpreted from the published CVSS impact metrics and the affected component. A CVSS impact score is not proof that a particular asset is exploitable.
Weakness classification
CWE-639Affected products and versions
NVD has not supplied machine-readable vulnerable CPE product/version entries for this CVE. This is an information gap, not proof that no products are affected. Check the vendor advisory references below.
Remediation & validation
- Identify exposure by comparing the affected product and version ranges with your asset inventory, SBOM and externally exposed services.
- Review the linked vendor security advisory or patch notes. Upgrade to a vendor-confirmed fixed release; do not infer a fixed version from the CVE description.
- Until patched, consider restricting network access or disabling the affected feature where operationally safe. These are temporary controls, not a substitute for a vendor fix.
- Validate the remediation with a version check and vulnerability rescan, then retain change evidence.
No fixed version is displayed unless it is explicitly established by a vendor advisory. Follow the vendor's release notes for exact product and branch applicability.
