{"cve":"CVE-2026-27954","nvd":{"published":"2026-02-26T02:16:23.147","modified":"2026-06-17T10:27:58.277","status":"Analyzed","description":"Live Helper Chat is an open-source application that enables live support websites. In versions up to and including 4.52, three chat action endpoints  (holdaction.php, blockuser.php, and transferchat.php) load chat objects by ID without calling `erLhcoreClassChat::hasAccessToRead()`, allowing operators to act on chats in departments they are not assigned to. Operators with the relevant role permissions (holduse, allowblockusers, allowtransfer) can hold, block users from, or transfer chats in departments they are not assigned to. This is a horizontal privilege escalation within one organization. As of time of publication, no known patched versions are available.","cvss_v4":{"vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U","score":4.9},"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N","score":6.5},"cwes":["CWE-862"],"references":["https://github.com/LiveHelperChat/livehelperchat/security/advisories/GHSA-87wc-2p86-h3w7"],"products":["livehelperchat:live_helper_chat"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:24:17.937441719+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-27954","score":0.0022,"percentile":0.12629,"date":"2026-11-01"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
