· This release note includes the improvement of the asset handling mechanism as well as bug fixes in the permission model. 🔏
Please read on for details:
The Asset Handling Mechanism‘s logic in Zammad ensures that client users are not able to see other users' personal data. By using a web socket connection, a logged-in attacker could bypass this logic and retrieve the personal data of other users via the Zammad API. As of now, the logic is also effective when using the web socket connection.
Zammad has a fine-grained permission model that allows configuring read-only access to tickets. However, agents were still wrongly able to perform some operations on such tickets, like adding and removing links, tags, and related answers. As of now, this bug has been fixed.
Note: 🏠 Hosted instances will be updated automatically, so there is no action required from your side.
