CVE-2026-126797
validatingZero is analyzing and reversing it now.description
NextScan 1.1.0 through 1.2.0 has an authentication bypass in its ns-admin component caused by a fixed JWT signing secret. An unauthenticated attacker who can reach the affected service can create administrator-level tokens and access user administration, scan operations, and stored scan results.
Still under analysis: more detail becomes available as the pipeline runs.
mitigation
Restrict ns-admin access to trusted administrators and networks immediately; remove it from public exposure and place it behind enforced access controls. Track vendor remediation before restoring broader access, as no fixed version is recorded.
outcome
Run in progress: no artifact yet.
