CVE-2026-40102: Plane is an open-source project management tool. In versions 1.3.0 and below, SavedAnalyticEndpoint passes the user-controlled segment query parameter directly to a Django F() expression without validation (unlike the regular AnalyticsEndpoint, which checks against an allowlist), causing ORM Field Reference Injection. An authenticated workspace MEMBER can send GET /api/workspaces/<slug>/saved-analytic-view/<analytic_id>/ with a crafted segment value that is forwarded into build_graph_plot() and traverses foreign-key relationships (e.g. workspace__owner__password) before being projected via .values("dimension", "segment"), returning the referenced field values directly in the JSON response. This exposes sensitive data such as bcrypt password hashes, API tokens, and related users' email addresses, making it a stronger primitive than the related order_by injection where values are only leaked through ordering. This issue has been fixed in version 1.3.1.
The exploitability of CVE-2026-40102 depends on two key factors: attack complexity (the level of effort required to execute an exploit) and privileges required (the access level an attacker needs).
CVE-2026-40102 presents an accessible attack vector with minimal effort required. Restricting access controls and implementing security updates are critical to reducing exploitation risks.
A lower complexity and fewer privilege requirements make exploitation easier. Security teams should evaluate these aspects to determine the urgency of mitigation strategies, such as patch management and access control policies.
Attack Complexity (AC) measures the difficulty in executing an exploit. A high AC means that specific conditions must be met, making an attack more challenging, while a low AC means the vulnerability can be exploited with minimal effort.
Privileges Required (PR) determine the level of system access necessary for an attack. Vulnerabilities requiring no privileges are more accessible to attackers, whereas high privilege requirements limit exploitation to authorized users with elevated access.
Above is the CVSS Sub-score Breakdown for CVE-2026-40102, illustrating how Base, Impact, and Exploitability factors combine to form the overall severity rating. A higher sub-score typically indicates a more severe or easier-to-exploit vulnerability.
Below is the Impact Analysis for CVE-2026-40102, showing how Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability might be affected if the vulnerability is exploited. Higher values usually signal greater potential damage.
