PYSEC-2026-1460

Indico may disclose unauthorized user details access via legacy API

Quick fix

PYSEC-2026-1460 — indico: upgrade to the fixed version with the command below.

pip install --upgrade 'indico>=3.3.8'

Details

### Impact A legacy API to retrieve user details could be misused to retrieve profile details of other users without having admin permissions due to a broken access check.

### Patches You should to update to [Indico 3.3.8](https://github.com/indico/indico/releases/tag/v3.3.8) as soon as possible. See [the docs](https://docs.getindico.io/en/stable/installation/upgrade/) for instructions on how to update.

### Workarounds It is possible to restrict access to the affected API (e.g. in the webserver config) which is most likely unused anyway and thus will not break anything.
