CVE-2026-119597

CriticalCVSS 9.8
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

OpenDeepWiki through 2.0.6 contains a hard-coded JWT signing key in appsettings.json. An unauthenticated attacker can forge administrator tokens with an Admin role claim and access /api/admin endpoints.

Risk Assessment

An attacker can take full control over users, roles, repositories, settings, and API keys of the application. This is a critical risk of system takeover without any authentication.

Recommendation

Upgrade OpenDeepWiki beyond 2.0.6 and replace the hard-coded JWT key with a unique random secret stored outside the code repository. Invalidate all existing tokens after rotating the key.
