Unauthenticated license reset via missing capability check
Published Nov 1, 2024 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
Missing authorization in Uncanny Owl Uncanny Automator Pro before 5.3.0.1 allows remote attackers to reset license settings. An undisclosed license-management function omits a capability check and accepts an unauthenticated request that clears stored license configuration. No account or user interaction is required, and the published impact is limited to license-related service interruption rather than disclosure or broader data modification.
