CVE-2025-48027Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Authentication bypass via trusted DNS login endpoint

Published May 15, 2025 · Updated May 15, 2025

Authentication bypass in the HttpAuth plugin for MutonUfoAI pGina.Fork 3.9.9.12 and earlier allows remote attackers to gain local access. Settings.resolveSettings() accepts the first DNS TXT answer for pginaloginserver, persists it as the login endpoint, and getResponse() treats any HTTP 200 reply as successful authentication. The HttpAuth plugin must handle authentication and the attacker must control DNS resolution; a forged reply can capture plaintext credentials or assign local administrator membership.
