CVE-2026-59233: Prospero Flow CRM lets any logged‑in user upgrade their rights
CVE-2026-59233 · published 2 months ago
Summary
In Prospero Flow CRM versions before 5.2.1, a user who is signed in can send a specially crafted request to the permission‑saving page and give themselves full access to the system. This means they could perform actions normally reserved for administrators. Upgrade to version 5.2.1 or later, or apply the vendor's patch, to add the missing check and stop unauthorized role changes.
What to do
- Update roskus prospero flow crm to version 5.2.1 or later.

Original advisory text
Missing Authorization in Prospero Flow CRM permission save endpoint allows privilege escalation
Missing Authorization in the permission management component in Roskus Prospero Flow CRM before 5.2.1 allows any authenticated user to grant any role, including their own, the complete set of application permissions via a crafted POST request to the permission save endpoint, which performs no authorization check before synchronizing the submitted permissions to the specified role.
