CVE-2026-64945: Apache Answer: Incorrect permission mapping allows users with only the unpin permission to hide/show questions
Apache Answer through 2.0.2 lets unpin-only users hide or show questions.
24
A vulnerability in Apache Answer. This issue affects Apache Answer: through 2.0.2. The question operation controller gates hide/show operations on the wrong permission check result (the unpin permission instead of the hide permission), so in custom role configurations that separate these permissions, a user granted only question.unpin can hide or restore questions without holding question.hide or question.show. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.0.3, which fixes the issue.
Apache Answer through 2.0.2 lets unpin-only users hide or show questions.
