As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.

Impact Harbor fails to validate the user permissions to view Webhook policies including relevant credentials configured in different projects the user doesn’t have access to, resulting in malicious users being able to read Webhook policies of other users/projects. API call is GET /projects/{projectnameorid}/webhook/policies/{webhookpolicyid} By sending the below request and specifying different Webhook policy ids in the last part of the URL, the malicious user may disclose Webhook policies related to other repositories/projects.: none;" Patches This and similar issues are fixed in Harbor v2.5.2 and later. Please upgrade as soon as possible. Workarounds There are no workarounds available.

# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2022-31666

Advisory: Harbor fails to validate the user permissions when viewing Webhook policies
IDs: CVE-2022-31666, GHSA-jf8p-3vjh-pq94
Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2022-31666 (revision 1, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 15:05 UTC)
Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected.
Severity: High (CVSS 7.7)
Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV.
Vendor response: Vendor fix available; fixed versions by package: github.com/goharbor/harbor 2.5.2, 2.4.3, 1.10.13. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed.

## Affected components
- Go github.com/goharbor/harbor: affected >= 1.0.0, <= 1.10.12; >= 2.0.0, <= 2.4.2; >= 2.5.0, <= 2.5.1; fixed in 1.10.13, 2.5.2, 2.4.3

## Suggested inspection (read-only)
- Go github.com/goharbor/harbor: check the installed version with your package manager.

## Supported action
Upgrade each affected component to a fixed version on its release line. For a transitive dependency, upgrade the parent package or add an override or constraint, then regenerate the lockfile. Redeploy every environment that ran an affected version.

## Required regression checks
- Run the test suite and a production build.
- Exercise the features that depend on github.com/goharbor/harbor.
- Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed.

## Rollback considerations
- Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward.

## Unresolved questions
- Which deployments run an affected version?
- Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority.
- Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production.

## Sources
- Verified: https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-jf8p-3vjh-pq94 (GitHub-reviewed advisory GHSA-jf8p-3vjh-pq94 lists affected ranges: Go github.com/goharbor/harbor >=1.0.0 =2.0.0 =2.5.0 <=2.5.1)
