CVE-2026-71277 Details
Description
rust-iot-platform's AuthToken request-guard implementation (api/src/main.rs) only checks whether the Authorization HTTP header is present, and never validates its value against any session, token store, or signature. Any request carrying an arbitrary non-empty Authorization header (e.g. ) satisfies the guard, granting access to every endpoint protected only by this request guard.
A vulnerability exists in the rust-iot-platform's AuthToken request guard implementation, specifically in the file api/src/main.rs. The guard only checks for the presence of the Authorization HTTP header and fails to validate its content against any session, token store, or signature. As a result, any request with a non-empty Authorization header, such as 'Authorization: fake', can bypass the guard and gain access to endpoints that rely solely on this request guard for protection.
