# Movim: authenticated users can read restricted posts from cache

Link for people: https://infrastack.ai/live/CVE-2026-125379 (this .md is for agents)

Movim, a self-hosted XMPP social network, has an authorization bypass in its Post::ajaxGetPost handler through version 0.35.5. An authenticated user who knows item identifiers can read community or contact-only posts from the pod-wide cache before the access check runs.

_Summary, check and fix written by a model from the sources; labelled as such._

## Affected

- vendor:movim affected range not listed fixed no fixed version listed

## How to check

- Check the installed Movim version against the fixed release in the sources (unknown if not stated)
- Confirm whether the pod runs a Movim version through `0.35.5`

- [advisory] Third-party advisory: www.vulncheck.com https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/movim-through-0.35.5-authorization-bypass-via-post-ajaxgetpost-cached-post-read
- [fix] Patch: github.com https://github.com/movim/movim/commit/378e0368368d0dd9cb090b78e68a63064d47d512

## From the sources

Movim through 0.35.5 contains an authorization bypass vulnerability in Post::ajaxGetPost that allows authenticated users to read restricted posts by supplying server, node and nodeid values. Attackers who know item identifiers can retrieve cached community or contact-only posts from the pod-wide cache before the XMPP authorization check runs.
