CVE-2026-5622 Details
Description
A vulnerability was determined in hcengineering Huly Platform 0.7.382. Affected by this issue is some unknown functionality of the file foundations/core/packages/token/src/token.ts of the component JWT Token Handler. This manipulation of the argument SERVER_SECRET with the input secret causes use of hard-coded cryptographic key . The attack can be initiated remotely. The attack is considered to have high complexity. The exploitation is known to be difficult. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
A vulnerability exists in hcengineering Huly Platform version 0.7.382 within the JWT token handling component. The issue arises from the use of a hard-coded cryptographic key in the token signing and verification process. When the SERVER_SECRET environment variable is not set, the application defaults to the string 'secret', which is publicly known and can be exploited. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to forge JWT tokens with elevated privileges, such as administrative rights, leading to a complete compromise of the affected platform.
It is recommended to remove the hard-coded secret fallback entirely and ensure that the SERVER_SECRET is explicitly configured before the application starts. Additionally, generate a cryptographically secure secret on the first deployment, enforce a minimum secret length, and implement a health check that warns about weak secrets.
