{"id":"CVE-2026-33072","summary":"FileRise: Default Encryption Key Enables Token Forgery and Config Decryption","details":"FileRise is a self-hosted web file manager / WebDAV server. In versions prior to 3.9.0, a hardcoded default encryption key (default_please_change_this_key) is used for all cryptographic operations — HMAC token generation, AES config encryption, and session tokens — allowing any unauthenticated attacker to forge upload tokens for arbitrary file upload to shared folders, and to decrypt admin configuration secrets including OIDC client secrets and SMTP passwords. FileRise uses a single key (PERSISTENT_TOKENS_KEY) for all crypto operations. The default value default_please_change_this_key is hardcoded in two places and used unless the deployer explicitly overrides the environment variable. This issue is fixed in version 3.9.0.","aliases":["GHSA-f4xx-57cv-mg3x"],"modified":"2026-04-02T13:41:28.335062Z","published":"2026-03-20T08:31:08.452Z","database_specific":{"cna_assigner":"GitHub_M","cwe_ids":["CWE-1188","CWE-798"],"osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/33xxx/CVE-2026-33072.json"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/error311/FileRise/releases/tag/v3.9.0"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/33xxx/CVE-2026-33072.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/error311/FileRise/security/advisories/GHSA-f4xx-57cv-mg3x"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-33072"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://github.com/error311/filerise","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"f2b749c0b59884f52b0d215aac5e1c0275338f5c"}]}],"versions":["1.4.0","v1.0.0","v1.0.1","v1.0.2","v1.0.3","v1.0.4","v1.0.5","v1.0.6","v1.0.7","v1.0.8","v1.0.9","v1.1.0","v1.1.1","v1.1.2","v1.1.3","v1.2.0","v1.2.1","v1.2.2","v1.2.3","v1.2.4","v1.2.5","v1.2.6","v1.2.7","v1.2.8","v1.3.0","v1.3.1","v1.3.13","v1.3.15","v1.3.2","v1.3.3","v1.3.4","v1.3.5","v1.3.6","v1.3.7","v1.3.8","v1.3.9","v1.5.0","v1.5.1","v1.5.2","v1.5.3","v1.6.0","v1.6.1","v1.6.10","v1.6.11","v1.6.2","v1.6.3","v1.6.5","v1.6.6","v1.6.7","v1.6.8","v1.6.9","v1.7.2","v1.7.3","v1.7.4","v1.7.5","v1.8.0","v1.8.1","v1.8.10","v1.8.11","v1.8.12","v1.8.13","v1.8.2","v1.8.3","v1.8.4","v1.8.5","v1.8.6","v1.8.7","v1.8.8","v1.8.9","v1.9.0","v1.9.1","v1.9.10","v1.9.11","v1.9.12","v1.9.13","v1.9.14","v1.9.2","v1.9.3","v1.9.4","v1.9.5","v1.9.6","v1.9.7","v1.9.8","v1.9.9","v2.0.1","v2.0.2","v2.0.3","v2.0.4","v2.1.0","v2.10.1","v2.10.4","v2.10.5","v2.11.0","v2.11.1","v2.11.2","v2.11.3","v2.11.4","v2.12.0","v2.12.1","v2.13.0","v2.13.1","v2.2.1","v2.2.2","v2.2.3","v2.2.4","v2.3.0","v2.3.1","v2.3.2","v2.3.4","v2.3.5","v2.3.6","v2.3.7","v2.4.0","v2.5.0","v2.5.1","v2.5.2","v2.6.1","v2.6.2","v2.7.0","v2.7.1","v2.8.0","v2.9.2","v2.9.3","v3.0.0","v3.0.1","v3.0.2","v3.1.0","v3.1.1","v3.1.2","v3.1.3","v3.1.4","v3.1.6","v3.1.7","v3.2.1","v3.2.2","v3.2.3","v3.2.4","v3.3.0","v3.3.1","v3.3.2","v3.3.3","v3.4.0","v3.4.1","v3.5.0","v3.5.1","v3.5.2","v3.6.0","v3.6.1","v3.7.0","v3.8.0"],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2026-33072.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:L/A:N"}]}
