{"id":"CVE-2026-77427","summary":"FileRise: Insecure default cryptographic key fallback in manual installs","details":"FileRise is a self-hosted web-based file manager with multi-file upload, editing, and batch operations. From 3.9.0 until 3.22.0, pristine manual FileRise installations without PERSISTENT_TOKENS_KEY or metadata/persistent_tokens.key can activate a published legacy compatibility key. If an attacker separately obtains ciphertext-bearing account or configuration files, the known fallback key can enable decryption of TOTP secrets or credentials. Docker installations already generated a unique persistent key, and existing installations are not automatically rotated because doing so could make encrypted state unreadable. This issue is fixed in version 3.22.0.","aliases":["GHSA-g6p5-9cpq-mp5h"],"modified":"2026-10-15T10:47:30.198957845Z","published":"2026-10-14T20:32:55.815Z","database_specific":{"osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/77xxx/CVE-2026-77427.json","cna_assigner":"GitHub_M","cwe_ids":["CWE-1188","CWE-798"]},"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/77xxx/CVE-2026-77427.json"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/error311/FileRise/commit/b5213b66d4c668a45f1b7600aa62b79cb66ddbe6"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/error311/FileRise/releases/tag/v3.22.0"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/error311/FileRise/security/advisories/GHSA-g6p5-9cpq-mp5h"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-77427"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://github.com/error311/filerise","events":[{"introduced":"f2b749c0b59884f52b0d215aac5e1c0275338f5c"},{"fixed":"26ef2de90ceef4d1dae8853551d96a22be6d455c"}],"database_specific":{"source":"AFFECTED_FIELD","extracted_events":[{"introduced":"3.9.0"},{"fixed":"3.22.0"}]}}],"versions":["v3.21.0","v3.20.0","v3.19.0","v3.18.0","v3.17.0","v3.16.0","v3.15.0","v3.14.0","v3.13.0","v3.12.0","v3.11.2","v3.11.1","v3.11.0","v3.10.0","v3.9.4","v3.9.3","v3.9.2","v3.9.1","v3.9.0"],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2026-77427.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N"}]}
