NetBox from 2.9.0 before 4.7.4 contains a broken access control vulnerability in BulkComponentCreateView that allows authenticated users to bypass view permissions on parent devices and virtual machines. Attackers with add-component permission can submit arbitrary device or VM IDs, or _all with filters, to view out-of-scope device details and create components on them.
