CVE-2023-41321
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedGLPI stands for Gestionnaire Libre de Parc Informatique is a Free Asset and IT Management Software package, that provides ITIL Service Desk features, licenses tracking and software auditing. An API user can enumerate sensitive fields values on resources on which he has read access. Users are advised to upgrade to version 10.0.10. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · moderate confidenceGLPI versions before 10.0.10 contain an information disclosure vulnerability in the API where users with read access to certain resources can enumerate sensitive field values that should not be exposed through the API interface.
Verify against the referenced sources before acting — the references below are authoritative for this CVE, this summary is not.
Affected products & versions What the vendor confirmedThe version ranges the vendor confirmed as vulnerable. If your version sits inside a range here, treat yourself as exposed until you have upgraded.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Locate the GLPI installationFind the GLPI web application directory on your server. The version information is typically stored in a version.php or inc/VERSION.php file in the GLPI root directory.Affected if GLPI is installed and the version file exists in the expected location
-
Determine the installed GLPI versionOpen the version file (version.php or inc/VERSION.php) and read the version number. Compare this to the affected range of >= 9.1.1 and < 10.0.10.Affected if The installed version is 9.1.1 or higher but lower than 10.0.10
-
Verify the API is accessibleCheck if the GLPI REST API endpoint is enabled and reachable. This is typically accessible at /apirest.php or /api/ on the GLPI web server. Review the API configuration in Setup > General > API or check the apirest.php file.Affected if The API endpoint is accessible and the GLPI version falls within the affected range
-
Confirm user read access to API resourcesIdentify users or API tokens that have read-only access to GLPI resources (such as tickets, users, or other objects). Test whether these users can retrieve sensitive field values through API calls that should not be exposed.Affected if Users with read-only permissions can enumerate sensitive field values through the API that should be restricted
Your environment is affected if GLPI version is 9.1.1 or higher but lower than 10.0.10, the API is accessible, and users with read access can obtain sensitive field values through API endpoints.
Generated from the published advisory. Verify against your own configuration.
Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scoped10.0.10
Upgrade to GLPI version 10.0.10. No workarounds are available.
10.0.10
- 1. Create a complete backup of the GLPI database and filesystem (including the glpi/ directory and configuration files)
- 2. Review the GLPI 10.0.10 release notes for any configuration or behavioral changes
- 3. Test the upgrade in a staging environment before applying to production
- 4. Download GLPI version 10.0.10 from the official source (glpi-project.org)
- 5. Put the application in maintenance mode or ensure no active sessions during upgrade
- 6. Replace the existing GLPI files with the new version 10.0.10 files, preserving local configuration
- 7. Run the GLPI migration scripts by accessing the application URL or via CLI
- 8. Verify the upgrade was successful by logging in and checking the version number
