  • Sep 25, 2026Horilla is an HR and CRM software.CVE-2026-96795 · Other software · horilla · reported by GitHubHigh 8.8

    Horilla is an HR and CRM software. Prior to 2.0.0, HorillaListView.export_data in horilla_views/generic/cbv/views.py accepts an authenticated user's columns POST parameter, takes field_tuple[1], interpolates it into dynamic_fn_str as Python source, and passes the generated function definition to exec(). A crafted string that remains valid under ast.literal_eval can inject Python syntax into a default argument evaluated during function definition, allowing arbitrary operating-system commands to execute with the application process privileges, including root privileges in the shipped Docker image. This issue is fixed in version 2.0.0.

  • Sep 25, 2026Horilla is an HR and CRM software.CVE-2026-86066 · Other software · horilla · reported by GitHubMedium 5.9

    Horilla is an HR and CRM software. Prior to 2.0.0, approve_validate_attendance_request at /attendance/approve-validate-attendance-request/ changes attendance_validated, is_validate_request_approved, approved_by, and related pending-request state through an HTTP GET before calling attendance.save(), so Django does not require CSRF validation for the action. An unauthenticated attacker can cause a logged-in manager with attendance.change_attendance to make a top-level request that carries the manager's SameSite=Lax session cookie, silently approving attendance with the victim's privileges and attributing the approval to the victim in the audit trail. This issue is fixed in version 2.0.0.

    Horilla is an HR and CRM software. Prior to 1.6.0, the search parameter at /employee/employee-filter-view is reflected by jQuery .html() in employee/templates/employee_nav.html without HTML neutralization. An external attacker can craft and deliver a link that causes JavaScript to execute when an authenticated employee or administrator reaches the employee filter, allowing access to browser-visible session data and actions with the victim's application privileges. This issue is fixed in version 1.6.0.

  • Sep 25, 2026Horilla is an HR and CRM software.CVE-2026-63432 · Other software · horilla · reported by GitHubMedium 6.5

    Horilla is an HR and CRM software. From 1.0.0 until 1.6.0 and 2.0.0, the get_mail_preview handlers in recruitment/views/actions.py and employee/not_in_out_dashboard.py render a user-controlled body at /recruitment/get-mail-preview/ and /employee/get-employee-mail-preview with the full request object in the Django template context. An authenticated user with a valid CSRF token can use template attribute traversal to read request.user.password, request.META, and related-user attributes, exposing password hashes, personal data, and server request metadata. Django template restrictions prevent arbitrary code execution through this primitive, so the demonstrated impact is information disclosure and possible offline password cracking or account compromise. This issue is fixed in versions 1.6.0 and 2.0.0.

    Horilla is an HR and CRM software. In 1.5.0-85 and earlier, payroll/views/component_views.py does not consistently authorize access in allowances_deductions_tab, view_single_allowance, and view_single_deduction before loading records selected by emp_id, allowance_id, or deduction_id. An authenticated employee can substitute those identifiers to read another employee's salary structure, allowance and deduction amounts, personal loan disbursements, and repayment schedules without owning the record or holding payroll-view permissions. No complete fixed version is available as of this review.

    Horilla is a free and open source Human Resource Management System (HRMS). Version 1.4.0 has Improper Access Control, allowing low-privileged employees to self-approve documents they have uploaded. The document-approval UI is intended to be restricted to administrator or high-privilege roles only; however, an insufficient server-side authorization check on the approval endpoint lets a standard employee modify the approval status of their own uploaded document. A successful exploitation allows users with only employee-level permissions to alter application state reserved for administrators. This undermines the integrity of HR processes (for example, acceptance of credentials, certifications, or supporting materials), and may enable submission of unvetted documents. This issue is fixed in version 1.5.0.

    Horilla is a free and open source Human Resource Management System (HRMS). In version 1.4.0, the OTP handling logic has a flawed equality check that can be bypassed. When an OTP expires, the server returns None, and if an attacker omits the otp field from their POST request, the user-supplied OTP is also None, causing the comparison user_otp == otp to pass. This allows an attacker to bypass two-factor authentication entirely without ever providing a valid OTP. If administrative accounts are targeted, it could lead to compromise of sensitive HR data, manipulation of employee records, and further system-wide abuse. This issue has been fixed in version 1.5.0.

    Horilla is a free and open source Human Resource Management System (HRMS). In version 1.4.0, the has_xss() function attempts to block XSS by matching input against a set of regex patterns. However, the regexes are incomplete and context-agnostic, making them easy to bypass. Attackers are able to redirect users to malicious domains, run external JavaScript, and steal CSRF tokens that can be used to craft CSRF attacks against admins. This issue has been fixed in version 1.5.0.

An Improper Access Control vulnerability exists in Horilla HR Software starting in version 1.4.0 and prior to version 1.5.0, allowing any authenticated employee to upload documents on behalf of another employee without proper authorization. This occurs due to insufficient server-side validation of the employee_id parameter during file upload operations, allowing any authenticated employee to upload document in behalf of any employee.

    Horilla is a free and open source Human Resource Management System (HRMS). A critical File Upload vulnerability in versions prior to 1.5.0, with Social Engineering, allows authenticated users to deploy phishing attacks. By uploading a malicious HTML file disguised as a profile picture, an attacker can create a convincing login page replica that steals user credentials. When a victim visits the uploaded file URL, they see an authentic-looking "Session Expired" message prompting them to re-authenticate. All entered credentials are captured and sent to the attacker's server, enabling Account Takeover. Version 1.5.0 patches the issue.

    Horilla is a free and open source Human Resource Management System (HRMS). Prior to version 1.4.0, the file upload flow performs validation only in the browser and does not enforce server-side checks. An attacker can bypass the client-side validation (for example, with an intercepting proxy or by submitting a crafted request) to store an executable HTML document on the server. When an administrator or other privileged user views the uploaded file, the embedded script runs in their context and sends session cookies (or other credentials) to an attacker-controlled endpoint. The attacker then reuses those credentials to impersonate the admin. This issue has been patched in version 1.4.0.

    Horilla is a free and open source Human Resource Management System (HRMS). A stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Horilla HRM 1.3.0 allows authenticated admin or privileged users to inject malicious JavaScript payloads into multiple fields in the Project and Task modules. These payloads persist in the database and are executed when viewed by an admin or other privileged users through the web interface. Although the issue is not exploitable by unauthenticated users, it still poses a high risk of session hijacking and unauthorized action within high-privilege accounts. At time of publication there is no known patch.

    Horilla is a free and open source Human Resource Management System (HRMS). An authenticated Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability exists in Horilla 1.3.0 due to the unsafe use of Python’s eval() function on a user-controlled query parameter in the project_bulk_archive view. This allows privileged users (e.g., administrators) to execute arbitrary system commands on the server. While having Django’s DEBUG=True makes exploitation visibly easier by returning command output in the HTTP response, this is not required. The vulnerability can still be exploited in DEBUG=False mode by using blind payloads such as a reverse shell, leading to full remote code execution. This issue has been patched in version 1.3.1.
