Overview

snipe/snipe-it is an asset management system built on Laravel.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Authentication Bypass Using an Alternate Path or Channel via the API token issuance process. An attacker can gain unauthorized persistent API access by authenticating with a valid password but without completing the second authentication factor, allowing them to obtain a long-lived API token and perform actions within the scope of the compromised account, including administrative functions if the account has such privileges.
