CVE-2026-12593
Privilege escalation via forged API token creation in Axivion Dashboard OIDC/OAuth2/SSO subsystem
Description

The implementation of an internal and undocumented Dashboard API endpoint (POST /api/users/~/{user}/tokens) forgot to ensure an HTTP request for creating an API Token for another user had sufficient permission to do so. Precondition for successful exploitation was a preexisting internal user (with more privileges than the attacker), the attacker knowing its login name and the attacker being able to authenticate to the Dashboard via OAuth/OIDC. The attacker would then have had to forge a token creation API request on behalf of the other user and could have authenticated and finalized the token creation with their own OAuth/OIDC credentials. In the worst case, this would mean an attacker could have become Dashboard Administrator and been able to perform all administrative actions if the preexisting internal user had administrative privileges. In combination with a separate weakness, this could have further led to code execution on the host system running the Dashboard with the privileges of the OS-User running the Dashboard server.

CVSS 134c704f-9b21-4f2e-91b3-4a467353bcc0
CVSS 4.0 HIGH a59d8014-47c4-4630-ab43-e1b13cbe58e3
CVSS 4.0 HIGH a59d8014-47c4-4630-ab43-e1b13cbe58e3
Solution
Implement proper authorization checks for API endpoints to prevent privilege escalation.
  • Enforce authorization for the token creation API endpoint.
  • Validate user privileges before token creation.
  • Remove or restrict undocumented API endpoints.
  • Review and secure OAuth/OIDC configurations.
