Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Radicale versions prior to 1.1
Description The issue allows remote authenticated users to bypass owner write and owner only limitations via regex metacharacters in the user name. This can be demonstrated by using ".*" in the user name, effectively bypassing the intended restrictions.
Recommendations For versions prior to 1.1, update to version 1.1 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of regex metacharacters in user names to minimize the risk of exploitation.
