CVE-2026-43925 FOSSBilling CVE debrief
CVE-2026-43925 is a medium-severity vulnerability in FOSSBilling, a free, open-source billing and client management system. An unauthenticated mass assignment vulnerability in the client self-registration endpoint allows any visitor to assign themselves to an arbitrary client group during sign-up. This could enable an attacker to apply group-restricted discount codes and receive unauthorized discounts. The vulnerability was patched in version 0.8.0. As a workaround, administrators can either remove group restrictions from promo codes or disable client self-registration. Defenders should prioritize upgrading to version 0.8.0 or later.
