SCA: security update for admidio/admidio (GHSA-rmpj-3x5m-9m5f)

critical Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 438858

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - Admidio is an open-source user management solution. In versions 5.0.0 through 5.0.6, the documents and
 files module does not verify whether the current user has permission to delete folders or files. The
 folder_delete and file_delete action handlers in modules/documents-files.php only perform a VIEW
 authorization check (getFolderForDownload / getFileForDownload) before calling delete(), and they never
 validate a CSRF token. Because the target UUIDs are read from $_GET, deletion can be triggered by a plain
 HTTP GET request. When the module is in public mode (documents_files_module_enabled = 1) and a folder is
 marked public (fol_public = true), an unauthenticated attacker can permanently destroy the entire document
 library. Even when the module requires login, any user with view-only access can delete content they are
 only permitted to read. This issue has been fixed in version 5.0.7. (CVE-2026-32817)

Solution

Update the admidio/admidio library and its related packages to version 5.0.7 or later.
