CVSS 3.1
6.5 mediumCVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:NCVE-2019-16097
Medium (6.5) in linuxfoundation harbor. EPSS 22% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days. Fixed in github.com/goharbor/harbor 1.9.0-rc1.
core/api/user.go in Harbor 1.7.0 through 1.8.2 allows non-admin users to create admin accounts via the POST /api/users API, when Harbor is setup with DB as authentication backend and allow user to do self-registration. Fixed version: v1.7.6 v1.8.3. v.1.9.0. Workaround without applying the fix: configure Harbor to use non-DB authentication backend such as LDAP.
