CVE-2026-110765 in FlexPrice
Summary
by MITRE • 10/14/2026
FlexPrice through 2.1.38 contains an authentication bypass vulnerability in HandleQuickBooksWebhook that skips signature verification when the intuit-signature header is omitted. Unauthenticated attackers knowing a tenant and environment ID can replay forged payment notifications to repeatedly add payment amounts, marking invoices paid or overpaid.

The FlexPrice application version 2.1.38 and earlier contains a critical authentication bypass vulnerability within the HandleQuickBooksWebhook endpoint that fundamentally undermines the integrity of financial data processing. This flaw arises from an insufficient verification mechanism where the system fails to validate the cryptographic signature associated with incoming webhook requests if the intuit-signature header is absent or omitted by the sender. In secure integrations, such headers are essential for ensuring message authenticity and preventing tampering; their omission should trigger a rejection of the request rather than proceeding with processing logic that assumes trust based on other parameters alone.
This technical deficiency allows unauthenticated attackers to exploit the system by crafting malicious requests that omit the required signature header while supplying valid tenant and environment identifiers. By leveraging these known identifiers, an attacker can forge payment notifications without possessing legitimate credentials or signing keys. The vulnerability effectively bypasses the intended authentication controls because the application logic proceeds to process the webhook payload based solely on the presence of structural data rather than verifying its origin through cryptographic means.
The operational impact of this flaw is severe and directly affects financial accuracy within the QuickBooks integration layer. Attackers can replay forged payment notifications repeatedly, causing the system to incorrectly mark invoices as paid or overpaid without actual funds being transferred. This manipulation distorts accounting records, potentially leading to significant discrepancies in revenue recognition, cash flow analysis, and customer account balances. Furthermore, because the vulnerability allows for repeated execution of these actions, an attacker can systematically inflate payment statuses across multiple transactions, creating a complex audit trail that is difficult to detect without rigorous monitoring of webhook integrity checks.
From a classification perspective, this issue aligns with CWE-287 Improper Authentication and CWE-345 Insufficient Verification of Data Authenticity as defined by the Common Weakness Enumeration standards. In terms of tactical behavior within the MITRE ATT&CK framework, this vulnerability facilitates unauthorized access and data manipulation consistent with techniques involving exploitation of trusted integrations for lateral movement or financial fraud. The lack of signature verification represents a failure in implementing robust input validation and integrity checks on external API interactions.
To mitigate this risk, immediate remediation is required to enforce strict validation of the intuit-signature header on all incoming webhook requests. Developers must ensure that any request missing this specific authentication artifact is rejected outright with an appropriate error code rather than being processed further. Additionally implementing rate limiting for webhook endpoints can help detect and prevent replay attacks even if other controls are temporarily bypassed. Regular security audits focusing on third-party integration points should be conducted to identify similar patterns where signature verification might be conditionally skipped, ensuring that all external data sources undergo rigorous integrity checks before influencing internal state or financial records.
