NVD · unedited
Incorrect privilege assignment vulnerability in HYPR Server allows Privilege Escalation.This issue affects HYPR Server: from 10.5.1 before 10.7.

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 confidence

An incorrect privilege assignment vulnerability in HYPR Server versions 10.5.1 through 10.6.x allows authenticated users to escalate their privileges beyond what their assigned role should permit. The vulnerability stems from improper validation or enforcement of privilege boundaries during certain operations, enabling lower-privileged users to perform actions reserved for higher-privileged accounts.

MitigationUpgrade HYPR Server to version 10.7 or later. If immediate upgrading is not feasible, review user role assignments and restrict privileged operations to essential personnel only until the patch can be applied.

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 checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify installed HYPR Server version
    Run 'hyprctl version' or check the server's about/settings page for the exact version number
    Affected if Version is 10.5.1, 10.5.x, 10.6.0, 10.6.1, 10.6.2, or any 10.6.x version (versions below 10.7 are affected)
  2. Verify HYPR Server is running
    Check if the HYPR Server service is active using systemctl status hypr-server or equivalent service management command
    Affected if The server is running and the version check shows an affected version
  3. Review user role assignments
    Check user accounts and their assigned roles in the HYPR admin console or via hyprctl users list
    Affected if There are users assigned to roles other than the highest privilege level (this vulnerability allows privilege escalation from lower to higher roles)
  4. Audit recent authentication and authorization events
    Review HYPR Server logs for events involving role changes or privileged operations performed by accounts with standard or limited roles
    Affected if Logs show lower-privileged users performing actions typically restricted to higher-privileged roles

A user is affected if their HYPR Server version is 10.5.1 through 10.6.x and they have authenticated users with non-admin roles present in the system.

Mitigation available No clean upgrade yet — mitigate in the meantime
Mitigation

Upgrade HYPR Server to version 10.7 or later. If immediate upgrading is not feasible, review user role assignments and restrict privileged operations to essential personnel only until the patch can be applied.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

HYPR Server 10.7 or later

  1. Verify current HYPR Server version by checking the admin console or system information
  2. Review HYPR Server 10.7 release notes for upgrade requirements and any migration considerations
  3. Create a full backup of the current HYPR Server configuration and database
  4. Stop HYPR Server services before upgrading
  5. Upgrade HYPR Server to version 10.7 or later following the official upgrade documentation
  6. Verify the upgrade was successful by checking the version in the admin console
  7. Restart HYPR Server services
  8. Confirm normal operation and functionality
