Prolonged unauthorized access via refresh-token acceptance
Published Feb 20, 2026 · Updated Feb 20, 2026
Improper session management in SoftIron HyperCloud 2.3.5 through 2.6.8 allows remote authenticated users to retain resource access. The Manifold REST API accepts long-lived refresh tokens as authorization tokens and does not invalidate previously issued access tokens when refreshing a session. Possession of a disclosed token is required; a refresh token remains usable for its default one-year lifetime, while older access tokens can continue concurrent access.
