# CVE-2026-39966: TypeBot: Async filter() bypasses authorization, allowing IDOR in getLinkedTypebots and leaking cross-workspace bot definitions

- Severity: CVSS 6.5 (Medium), CNA
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N
- CISA SSVC: exploitation=poc, automatable=no, technicalImpact=partial
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no

## Affected

- baptisteArno typebot.io: fixed in 3.16.0

## Description

TypeBot is a chatbot builder tool. In versions 3.15.2, the getLinkedTypebots API endpoint returns full bot definitions to any authenticated user who references a target bot ID in a Typebot Link block, regardless of workspace ownership, leading to IDOR. The authorization check uses Array.filter() with an async callback — since filter() is synchronous, the callback always returns a truthy Promise, so the access control predicate is never actually evaluated. Any authenticated Typebot user can read the full definition of any other workspace's private bots, including: all conversation blocks and logic flow, variable values embedded in the bot (credentials, API keys, PII), webhook URLs and integration configurations. This issue has been fixed in version 3.16.0.
