Summary
authentik before versions 2026.2.6 and 2026.5.5 returns every configured Remote Access Control endpoint to any authenticated user regardless of application access, and the response includes connection settings that may contain stored credentials. Any authenticated user can read all endpoints with host and credentials and open connections to endpoints belonging to other applications, exposing credentials for managed RDP, SSH, and VNC targets and granting interactive access to unauthorized systems.
Risk Assessment
Exposure of credentials and unauthorized access to remote systems can lead to data confidentiality and integrity breaches and infrastructure compromise.
Recommendation
Upgrade authentik to version 2026.2.6 or 2026.5.5. Restrict access to the endpoint list and ensure access controls are enforced.
Original NVD description (English source)
authentik is an open-source identity provider. Prior to 2026.2.6 and 2026.5.5, the Remote Access Control endpoint list returns every configured endpoint to any authenticated user regardless of which applications the user may access, and the response includes connection settings that can contain stored credentials. The endpoint listing does not apply the access controls governing the endpoints, and the connection flow does not confirm that an endpoint belongs to the Remote Access Control application through which it was launched. Any authenticated user can therefore read every endpoint together with its host and stored credentials and can open a connection to an endpoint belonging to another application. This exposes stored credentials for managed RDP, SSH, and VNC targets and grants interactive access to systems the user was never authorized to reach. Deployments that do not use the enterprise Remote Access Control provider are not affected. This issue is fixed in versions 2026.2.6 and 2026.5.5.
