CVE-2026-54363 Details
Description
CentreStack before 17.5 contains a hardcoded cryptographic key vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to forge arbitrary encrypted tokens by exploiting a static SysNumber value used as entropy for AccessTicket.Encrypt() and AccessTicket.Decrypt() across all installations. Attackers can use the hardcoded key to craft valid x-glad-auth headers and call privileged API endpoints such as acquiretenantbackuptoken to obtain a domain administrator IdentityTicket, enabling a complete unauthenticated remote code execution chain.
A vulnerability exists in CentreStack versions prior to 17.5, where a hardcoded cryptographic key allows unauthenticated attackers to forge encrypted tokens. This is achieved by exploiting a static SysNumber value used as entropy in the AccessTicket encryption and decryption processes. Attackers can craft valid x-glad-auth headers and access privileged API endpoints, such as acquiretenantbackuptoken, to obtain a domain administrator IdentityTicket, thereby enabling a complete chain of unauthenticated remote code execution.
