# Frappe HRMS: bulk record endpoints skip per-employee access checks

Link for people: https://infrastack.ai/live/CVE-2026-126314 (this .md is for agents)

Frappe HRMS versions 15.0.0 before 15.64.6 and 16.0.0 before 16.20.1 do not check access to each employee on endpoints that create records in bulk. A logged-in user with create permission, such as an HR User, can create records for employees outside their permission scope, including employees of other companies.

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

## How to check

- Check the installed HRMS version in the Frappe bench, for example `bench version` or the `hrms` entry in the app list.
- Confirm whether the installed version is in the affected range: `15.0.0` up to `15.64.6`, or `16.0.0` up to `16.20.1`.
- Review which users hold create permission on HR record types and whether user permissions restrict them by company.

## Fix

- Frappe HRMS `15.64.6` for the 15.x line
- Frappe HRMS `16.20.1` for the 16.x line

## From the sources

Frappe HRMS 15.0.0 before 15.64.6 and 16.0.0 before 16.20.1 does not check access to each employee on endpoints that create records in bulk for a list of employees. An authenticated user with create permission on the affected record type, such as HR User, can create records for employees outside their user-permission scope, including other companies' employees.
