CVE-2026-85983

HighCVSS 7.8

Published: 08/09/2026(UTC)Translated: 09/09/2026(UTC)NVD NIST

Summary

The Auth0 AD/LDAP Connector improperly processes a configuration value during service startup. This allows a low-privileged user on the host system to modify the connector's configuration. When the service restarts, the modified configuration can lead to code execution with the privileges of the service account.

Risk Assessment

A low-privileged local user can escalate privileges to the service account level, potentially leading to unauthorized access to systems and data.

Recommendation

Apply vendor-provided patches and restrict access to the connector's configuration files.
