CVE-2026-5780
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 · uneditedAn insecure direct object reference (IDOR) vulnerability in MphRx's Minerva V3.6.0, specifically in the endpoint '/minerva/moUser/show/'. If this vulnerability is successfully exploited, an authenticated user can access the data of other registered users simply by modifying the ID. This allows an attacker to obtain a list of users.
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 · high confidenceAn IDOR vulnerability in Minerva V3.6.0 at the '/minerva/moUser/show/' endpoint allows any authenticated user to access other registered users' data by manipulating the user ID parameter in the request, enabling unauthorized disclosure of user information.

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.
-
Confirm Minerva versionLocate the Minerva installation and check the version number. This may be in the application metadata, an about page, or the software bill of materials. Common locations include version files, admin panels, or the application header/footer.Affected if The installed version is exactly 3.6.0
-
Verify endpoint existsConfirm the /minerva/moUser/show/ endpoint is accessible in the application. This is typically found within the Minerva user management module. Check if the route responds to HTTP requests.Affected if The endpoint is present and responds to requests
-
Check authentication mechanismDetermine if the application uses session-based authentication where users receive a session token upon login. This is required for the IDOR to be exploitable - the attacker must be an authenticated user.Affected if Users can authenticate and receive session credentials
-
Test IDOR vulnerabilityLog in as a standard user with limited privileges. Using a tool like Burp Suite or curl, make a request to /minerva/moUser/show/ with a user ID parameter (such as ?userId=1 or /show/1) pointing to a different user account. Observe if the response returns that user's data without authorization errors.Affected if A request with another user's ID returns that user's private data without proper authorization checks
A user is affected if Minerva version 3.6.0 is installed AND the /minerva/moUser/show/ endpoint exists AND an authenticated user can access another user's data by manipulating the user ID parameter in the request.

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.
From vendor dataImplement proper authorization checks ensuring the authenticated user's session matches the requested user ID, and validate that the requesting user has permission to access the requested resource.
