CVE-2026-58165 Details
Description
OpenZiti through 2.0.0, fixed in commit 3027fdf, contains a privilege escalation vulnerability that allows authenticated non-admin identities with fine-grained enrollment management permissions to create enrollments for any identity, including the default administrator, because the ApplyCreate function in controller/model/enrollment_manager.go verifies only that the target identity exists without performing authorization checks binding the caller to the target identity. Attackers can redeem the resulting one-time token through the unauthenticated client API enrollment endpoint to obtain a client certificate authenticating as the targeted admin identity, yielding full administrative control of the controller and the zero-trust overlay it manages.
A privilege escalation vulnerability has been identified in OpenZiti versions through 2.0.0. This vulnerability allows authenticated non-admin identities with enrollment management permissions to create enrollments for any identity, including default administrators. The issue arises because the enrollment management function only verifies the existence of the target identity without proper authorization checks. As a result, attackers can generate a one-time token through the client API enrollment endpoint, using it to obtain a client certificate that authenticates as the admin identity, thereby gaining full administrative control.
Users are advised to update to OpenZiti version 2.1.0 or later, where this vulnerability has been fixed.
