Summary It was found that the foreman API and UI actions and URLs are not properly limited to the organizations and locations they were assigned to. This could allow an attacker to view and update other organizations and locations in the system that they should not be allowed to. The (1) Organization and (2) Locations APIs and UIs in Foreman before 1.11.4 and 1.12.x before 1.12.0-RC3 allow remote authenticated users to bypass organization and location restrictions and (a) read, (b) edit, or (c) delete arbitrary organizations or locations via unspecified vectors.
