{"id":"CVE-2026-57183","summary":"Scoold: Forged JWT Accepted as Admin API Token Allowing Unauthorized Access to Sensitive Configuration and Logs","details":"Scoold is a Q&A and a knowledge sharing platform for teams. Prior to 1.69.1, checkApiAuth() in src/main/java/com/erudika/scoold/utils/ScooldUtils.java accepts a JWT signed with app_secret_key or para_secret_key for /api/config and /api/stats without requiring a registered API-key jti, and maps the request to the hardcoded administrative API_USER. The special endpoint checks run even when scoold.api_enabled is false. An attacker who obtains either signing secret can forge a token that reads sensitive configuration and server logs and reaches privileged configuration functionality, while an ordinary login-session token is not sufficient. This issue is fixed in version 1.69.1.","aliases":["GHSA-6q9q-cqq5-hvmq"],"modified":"2026-10-16T10:46:26.762113822Z","published":"2026-10-15T18:32:47.861Z","database_specific":{"cwe_ids":["CWE-287"],"osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/57xxx/CVE-2026-57183.json","cna_assigner":"GitHub_M"},"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/57xxx/CVE-2026-57183.json"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/Erudika/scoold/commit/de018c17a60c352f318109a762a377c325a5fd97"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/Erudika/scoold/commit/e527d4da1ac04b6a35bd86e560c279f0160c5c02"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/Erudika/scoold/releases/tag/1.69.1"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/Erudika/scoold/security/advisories/GHSA-6q9q-cqq5-hvmq"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-57183"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://github.com/erudika/scoold","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"f6d2be9995df28c0776f477f124e827fc537058e"}],"database_specific":{"extracted_events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1.69.1"}],"source":"AFFECTED_FIELD"}}],"versions":["1.69.0","1.68.1","1.68.2","1.68.0","1.67.1","1.67.0","1.66.2","1.66.1","1.66.0","1.65.0","1.64.5","1.64.4","1.64.3","1.64.2","1.64.0","1.63.0","1.62.0","1.58.1","1.61.0","1.60.0","1.59.0","1.58.0","1.57.5","1.57.4","1.57.3","1.57.2","1.57.1","1.57.0","1.56.1","1.56.0","1.55.0","1.54.1","1.54.0","1.53.0","1.52.3","1.52.2","1.52.1","1.52.0","1.51.3","1.51.2","1.51.1","1.51.0","1.50.5","1.50.4","1.50.3","1.50.2","1.50.1","1.50.0","1.49.7","1.49.6","1.49.5","1.49.4","1.49.3","1.49.2","1.49.1","1.49.0","1.48.2","1.48.1","1.48.0","1.46.3","1.46.2","1.46.1","1.46.0","1.45.0","1.44.0","1.43.3","1.43.2","1.43.1","1.43.0","1.42.1","1.41.2","1.41.1","1.41.0","1.40.5","1.40.4","1.40.3","1.40.2","1.40.1","1.40.0","1.39.4","1.39.3","1.39.2","1.39.1","1.39.0","1.38.0","1.37.1","1.37.0","1.36.2","1.36.1","1.36.0","1.35.3","1.35.2","1.35.1","1.35.0","1.34.0","1.33.1","1.33.0","1.32.1","1.32.0","1.31.4","1.31.3","1.31.2","1.31.1","1.31.0","1.30.5","1.30.4","1.30.3","1.30.2","1.30.1","1.30.0","1.29.4","1.29.3","1.29.2","1.29.1","1.29.0","1.28.10","1.28.9","1.28.8","1.28.7","1.28.6","1.28.5","1.28.4","1.28.3","1.28.2","1.28.1","1.28.0","1.26.1","1.26.0","1.25.5","1.25.4","1.25.3","1.25.2","1.25.1","1.25.0","1.24.11","1.24.10","1.24.9","1.24.8","1.24.7","1.24.6","1.24.5","1.24.4","1.24.3","1.24.2","1.24.1"],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2026-57183.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N"}]}
