CVE-2026-31942 — LibreChat is an enhanced ChatGPT clone that supports multiple AI providers

High CVSS 7.1

LibreChat is an enhanced ChatGPT clone that supports multiple AI providers. In versions up to and including 0.7.6, an Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR) vulnerability exists in the API keys management endpoint (PUT /api/keys). Due to the use of the JavaScript object spread operator after setting the authenticated user's ID, any authenticated user can inject a userId parameter in the request body to overwrite any other user's API keys (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic, Azure). This allows an attacker to replace a victim's API key configuration, potentially routing the victim's conversations through attacker-controlled keys or denying service by providing invalid keys. This is patched in version 0.8.3-rc1.

Authorization bypass, IDOR, and cross-tenant access

This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.

Check exposure

  • Map object and action authorization checks across API, UI, batch, import/export, and background-job paths.
  • Identify tenant, ownership, role, and policy boundaries for affected resources and administrative operations.
  • Use synthetic fixtures to compare intended access matrices without accessing another user's real data.

Remediate safely

  • Enforce server-side authorization at each resource access and state transition using the authenticated principal and trusted tenant context.
  • Scope data queries by tenant and ownership; treat client-supplied identifiers, roles, and policy claims as untrusted.
  • Add deny-by-default policy tests for horizontal and vertical access across every affected transport.
