Description Joonas Kylmälä 2021-11-20 21:19:35 UTC
Any patron can set any checkout's circulation note by just going to the URL

localhost:8080/cgi-bin/koha/opac-issue-note.pl?issue_id=XXXX

It is quite easy to loop through all the issue ids. Gladly this is not exposing any circulation info but could be used for spamming other patrons (the checkout notes are shown on OPAC), or depending on how the circulation notes are used in the library maybe something more harmful could be done, as the notes are processed by the staff by going to the page

http://localhost:8081/cgi-bin/koha/circ/checkout-notes.pl

But seems quite minor and whatever harm was caused by this bug could be probably dealt with, so putting this as severity "normal"

This patch is not great and keep the script weak. Anything else to suggest?
Comment 3 Fridolin Somers 2021-12-02 00:48:39 UTC
Could we compare logged-in borrowernumber with issue's one ?

Like in opac/svc/checkout_notes :

Comment 4 Jonathan Druart 2021-12-02 07:59:27 UTC
My patch actually modifies opac/svc/checkout_notes, that was impacted as well, even with the test on borrowernumber.

opac/opac-issue-note.pl is used when JS is disabled.

Code is duplicated and buggy, we need to provide a simple fix for backporting but a refactoring should be considered.

Bug 29544: Fix opac-issue-note.pl

We must check if logged in user is trying to modify one of their
checkouts
Comment 6 Fridolin Somers 2021-12-22 06:28:00 UTC
+if ( $action eq 'issuenote' && C4::Context->preference('AllowCheckoutNotes') && $issue ) {

Do we need this ?
There is an early exit "if !$issue"

I see what you mean, but on the other side it doesn't hurt, right?

It does not ;)
Comment 11 Tomás Cohen Arazi 2022-01-12 12:45:49 UTC
Some notes:
- Works as expected
- Shouldn't we actually remove the 'hidden' feature completely?

I think this is a better approach for the same thing. Posting it just in
case it helps.
