CVE-2026-73652
HighCVSS 7.1Exploitation Probability (EPSS)
Low risk11th percentile - higher than 11% of all known CVEs
Summary
vantage6 version 5.0.2 and earlier has an algorithm-store edit permission lacking an ownership check, allowing one algorithm developer to alter another developer's algorithm while it is pending or under review. The attacker can change metadata including the algorithm image or image tag, causing reviewers and nodes to trust a different image from the one originally submitted. No fixed version is available as of this review.
Risk Assessment
The ability to swap algorithm images could lead to execution of malicious code in data processing environments, threatening the integrity of analyses and data confidentiality.
Recommendation
Restrict algorithm edit permissions to owners and monitor changes to algorithms; follow vendor updates for a patch.
Other vulnerabilities in vantage6
See all- CVE-2026-54533Medium
In versions prior to 5.0.0 of vantage6, malicious algorithms can potentially access other algorithms' input and output files. The issue is fixed in version 5.0.0.
- CVE-2026-54445Medium
In versions prior to 5.0.0 of the vantage6 software, the default user `root` with the password `root` poses a significant security risk. Attackers can easily gain access to the system as many vantage6 servers have this user with admin rights.
- CVE-2024-27928Medium
In versions prior to 5.0.0 of the vantage6 software, an attacker who gains access to a user's email account can reset the password and the 2FA token via email, reducing security to a single authentication factor (email access). Version 5.0.0 fixes this issue.
- CVE-2024-24769Low
In versions prior to 5.0.0, users can reset their MFA tokens via API routes that send them emails. The number of emails sent is not limited, allowing attackers to flood users' mailboxes.
Original NVD description (English source)
vantage6 is an open-source infrastructure for privacy preserving analysis. In version 5.0.2 and earlier, the algorithm-store edit permission lacks an ownership check, allowing one algorithm developer to alter another developer's algorithm while it is pending or under review. The attacker can change metadata including the algorithm image or image tag, causing reviewers and nodes to trust a different image from the one originally submitted for approval. No fixed version is available as of this review.
