## Summary

A low-privileged user of SuiteCRM, an open-source customer relationship management application, can exploit a flaw in its V8 API relationship endpoint to reassign records and alter ownership and security-relevant relationships, which can expand access across users and manipulate workflows. The attack is carried out remotely over the network with only low-level login credentials and requires no user interaction.

Model-written summary (anthropic/claude-haiku-5.5). Verify details against the original sources.

## Affected

- SuiteCRM: fixed in 7.15.2; from 8.0.0, fixed in 8.10.2

## Description

SuiteCRM is an open-source, enterprise-ready Customer Relationship Management (CRM) software application. Prior to 7.15.2 and 8.10.2, the POST /Api/V8/module/{moduleName}/{id}/relationships/{linkFieldName} endpoint checks only view and list permissions before a one-to-many relationship writes a target record's foreign key, without enforcing the required edit permission. A low-privileged user can reassign records, alter ownership and security-relevant relationships, expand cross-user access, and manipulate workflows. This issue is fixed in versions 7.15.2 and 8.10.2.

### What does this mean?

An authenticated low-privileged user can change security-relevant relationships and ownership fields on records they should only be able to read. This allows unauthorized reassignment of records, expanded access to other users' records, and manipulation of workflows.
