CVE-2026-0562 is an authorization flaw in parisneo/lollms affecting versions up to 2.2.0. The vulnerability exists in the respond_request() function in backend/routers/friends.py, exposed via the /api/friends/requests/{friendship_id} endpoint. The endpoint fails to verify that the authenticated user is either a participant in the referenced friendship or the intended recipient of the friend request before allowing the request to be accepted or rejected. As a result, any authenticated user who can supply or enumerate a valid friendship_id can perform state-changing actions on other users’ friend requests, constituting an insecure direct object reference (IDOR) caused by incorrect authorization.

/api/friends/requests/{friendship_id}, especially repeated access to sequential or unrelated friendship IDs, and consider logging and alerting on failed or cross-user authorization attempts. Reducing identifier predictability may raise exploitation difficulty, but it is not a substitute for proper authorization enforcement.Patch, then assume compromise.
respond_request() should enforce object-level authorization by verifying that the authenticated user is authorized to act on the specified friendship_id, specifically that they are the intended recipient or otherwise a legitimate participant in the friendship record before permitting accept/reject operations. Review similar endpoints for missing ownership or participant validation to prevent related IDOR issues.No public exploits tracked yet. Mallory keeps watching.
