CVE-2025-26363Network attack vector

Unauthenticated profile-server activation via unchecked HTTP requests

Published Feb 12, 2025 · Updated Feb 17, 2025

Missing authentication in Q-Free MAXTIME Suite 2.11.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to enable an authentication profile server. The maxprofile/setup/routes.lua handler accepts crafted HTTP requests without authenticating the caller before enabling that server. Reachability to the management web application is sufficient to alter authentication configuration and potentially bypass access controls.
