CVE-2026-76633WeGIA < 3.9.2 Authorization Bypass Password Change via alterarSenha
High 8.1
In plain English
A high-severity missing authorization in WeGIA from LabRedesCefetRJ. There are no confirmed reports of exploitation so far. The chance it is exploited in the next 30 days is estimated at 0.4% (higher than 38% of all known vulnerabilities).
Official description
WeGIA before 3.9.2 contains an authorization bypass vulnerability in the password change flow that allows any authenticated user to change their account password without providing existing credentials by exploiting the unconditional exclusion of the alterarSenha method from permission checks in controle/control.php. Attackers can manipulate the redir parameter to point to alterar_senha.php, routing through verificarSenhaConfig() instead of verificarSenha() to bypass current password verification and convert temporary session access into permanent account takeover.
