CVE-2026-42300
CriticalSummary
DevGuard prior to version 1.2.2 accepts a client-supplied X-Admin-Token HTTP request header and uses its raw string value as the authenticated userID when no Kratos session cookie is present. This allows an unauthenticated attacker to issue requests as that user, potentially taking control of the organization's resources.
Risk Assessment
An attacker who knows or can guess a target user's Kratos identity UUID can gain full control over that organization's DevGuard resources, posing a significant security risk.
Recommendation
It is recommended to upgrade to version 1.2.2 or later to mitigate this vulnerability and implement additional authentication mechanisms.
Original NVD description (English source)
DevGuard provides vulnerability management for the full software supply chain. Prior to 1.2.2, the SessionMiddleware accepts a client-supplied X-Admin-Token HTTP request header and uses its raw string value as the authenticated userID when no Kratos session cookie is present. An unauthenticated attacker who knows or can guess a target user's Kratos identity UUID can issue requests as that user. Where the target user is an organisation admin or owner, this gives the attacker full control over that organisation's DevGuard resources. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.2.2.
