ChurchCRM is an open-source church management system. In versions prior to 7.2.0, the /api/public/user/login endpoint validates only the username and password before returning the user's API key, bypassing the normal authentication flow that enforces account lockout and two-factor authentication checks. An attacker with knowledge of a user's password can obtain API access even when the account is locked or has 2FA enabled, granting direct access to all protected API endpoints with that user's privileges. This issue has been fixed in version 7.2.0. Note: this issue had a duplicate, GHSA-472m-p3gf-46xp, which has been closed.
CVE-2026-40582
This critical-severity CVE scores 9.1 under NVD CVSS v3. EPSS exploit probability: 0.0%, top 87% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).
- High severity, but no confirmed exploitation yet
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.
