{"id":"CVE-2026-42869","summary":"SOCFortress CoPilot: Hardcoded JWT secret allows unauthenticated full admin compromise and lateral movement into all integrated SOC tools","details":"SOCFortress CoPilot focuses on providing a single pane of glass for all your security operations needs. Prior to 0.1.57, SOCFortress CoPilot ships a hardcoded JWT signing secret as a fallback value in backend/app/auth/utils.py:28 and ships it verbatim in .env.example. Any deployment where JWT_SECRET is not explicitly set — including the default Docker Compose setup — signs all authentication tokens with this publicly known value. An unauthenticated attacker can forge arbitrary admin-scoped JWTs and gain full control of the application and every security tool it manages without any credentials. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.1.57.","aliases":["GHSA-4gxj-hw3c-3x2x"],"modified":"2026-07-15T01:49:18.101933760Z","published":"2026-05-11T18:39:28.664Z","database_specific":{"cwe_ids":["CWE-287","CWE-522","CWE-798"],"osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/42xxx/CVE-2026-42869.json","cna_assigner":"GitHub_M"},"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/42xxx/CVE-2026-42869.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/socfortress/CoPilot/security/advisories/GHSA-4gxj-hw3c-3x2x"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-42869"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/socfortress/CoPilot/commit/4640511a0cf2e7b144a71375b5b349a8318cb186"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/socfortress/CoPilot/pull/814"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://github.com/socfortress/copilot","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"4640511a0cf2e7b144a71375b5b349a8318cb186"}],"database_specific":{"extracted_events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"0.1.57"}],"source":["AFFECTED_FIELD","REFERENCES"]}}],"versions":["v0.1.56","v0.1.55","v0.1.54","v0.1.53","v0.1.52","v0.1.51","v0.1.50","v0.1.49","v0.1.48","v0.1.47","v0.1.46","v0.1.45","v0.1.44","v0.1.43","v0.1.42","v0.1.41","v0.1.40","v0.1.39","v0.1.38","v0.1.37","v0.1.36","v0.1.35","v0.1.34","v0.1.33","v0.1.32","v0.1.31","v0.1.30","v0.1.29","v0.1.28","v0.1.27","v0.1.26","v0.1.25","v0.1.24","v0.1.23","v0.1.22","v0.1.21","v0.1.20","v0.1.19","v0.1.18","v0.1.17","v0.1.16","v0.1.15","v0.1.14","v0.1.13","v0.1.12","v0.1.11","v0.1.10","v0.1.9","v0.1.8","v.0.1.8","v0.1.7","v0.1.6","v0.1.5","v0.1.4","v0.1.3","v0.1.2","v0.1.1","v0.1.0","v0.0.9","v0.0.8","v0.0.7","v0.0.6","v0.0.5","v0.0.4","v0.0.3","v0.0.2","v0.0.1"],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2026-42869.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H"}]}
