7.1 High Not applicable

Not yet in NVD's feed. The description, CVSS and CWE below come from the CVE Numbering Authority's own record, not from NVD analyst review. NVD's own page for this identifier may not exist yet.

Published yesterday. NVD backfills CPE data for days or weeks after publication, and OSV and the exploit indexes lag too. Scope and status here may change.

Description

novel-plus through 5.3.3 contains an information disclosure vulnerability in the /sys/user/list endpoint that lacks proper permission annotations. Authenticated attackers can retrieve password hashes and personal data including email addresses and phone numbers for users within their data scope, enabling offline hash cracking and account takeover.
