Administrative access via shared non-expiring superadmin token
Published Nov 9, 2022 · Updated May 1, 2025
Authentication bypass in Omnissa Workspace ONE Assist before 22.10 allows remote attackers to obtain administrative access over the network. A shared, non-expiring authentication token stored for the superadmin T10ServiceAccount is identical across installations and accepted for privileged requests. Remote attackers who know the token and can reach an Assist environment can change users and take control of managed devices without application credentials.
