Summary

CVE-2026-104978 is a high-severity Incorrect Authorization (CWE-863) vulnerability. Its CVSS base score is 8.2 (High).

Operationally, ranked at the 20th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to AC-24 (Access Control Decisions) and AC-25 (Reference Monitor) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Vulnerability Data

Plane is an open-source project management tool. Prior to 1.4.0, Plane's project invitation list endpoint is accessible to any authenticated user who knows the workspace slug and project ID, while the public project invitation join endpoint accepts an invitation based…

only on a submitted email address. When a pending invitation targets an email address that has not registered with Plane, an attacker can enumerate the invitation, register an account using the invited email without mailbox verification, and accept the invitation. The attacker-controlled account is then added to the target workspace and project. This issue is fixed in 1.4.0.

Mitigating Controls

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

AC-24 ensures access-control decisions are made and applied consistently, reducing the chance of an incorrect authorization result.

A reference monitor that is always invoked and tamper-proof forces every authorization decision through a verified, correct path.

AC-3 directly requires correct enforcement of authorization decisions on every access request, structurally preventing incorrect checks.

Mitigating Controls (ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Annex A) AI

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.

blocks

Requiring consistency between access rights and classification plus formal approval steps ensures that the authorization logic correctly distinguishes between entities that should and should not be granted access.

blocks

A.5.18's provisioning, revocation, review and adjustment of access rights (incl. before role changes/termination, with segregation and owner approval) directly stops incorrect authorization decisions from being exploitable in the vast majority of cases; the bounded remainder is incorrectness inside the authorization logic itself (e.g. flawed conditional or missing check) rather than rights that were wrongly granted.

blocks

A.8.3 directly mandates restricting access to information per policies via configuration, identity/group controls, isolation, and dynamic techniques that enforce correct authorization decisions, addressing most but not all slices of CWE-863 (e.g., remainder in non-access-decision authorization errors like timing or environmental factors).

Hardening callouts derived

DISA STIG baselines are authored against specific weaknesses. Where this CVE cites a broad weakness class, the mapping is not asserted at that abstraction (owner ruling, 2026-09-25: grade only at Base and below), so no rule is shown here rather than a rule shown against the wrong grain.

  • No fine-grained STIG row for CWE-863, a class-level weakness, and none of its children carries one either.
