Management access via nonexpiring session tokens
Published Oct 22, 2025 · Updated Oct 22, 2025
Authentication bypass in Mercku M6a 2.1.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to reuse stale session tokens for management access. The web interface accepted a 2020 session cookie for an authenticated API request in 2024, showing that token validation does not enforce expiration. An attacker must reach the management interface and obtain or forge a previously valid token; default exposure is limited to the local network.
