CyberRota Analysis

AI-Generated

The add_ac function in ERPNext's accounts utility allows authenticated limited users to bypass account creation permissions due to improper handling of the ignore_permissions argument, potentially leading to unauthorized creation of accounting master records. This vulnerability can compromise financial data integrity and disrupt audit trails. Organizations using affected versions should prioritize upgrading to versions 15.111.0 or 16.22.0 to mitigate these risks.

Original NVD Description

ERPNext is a free and open source Enterprise Resource Planning tool. Prior to 15.111.0 and 16.22.0, the add_ac function in erpnext/accounts/utils.py accepts the ignore_permissions argument without enforcing Account create permission, allowing an authenticated limited user to create unauthorized accounting master records and affect financial data integrity and audit trails. This issue is fixed in versions 15.111.0 and 16.22.0.
