CVE-2026-21641Network attack vector

Cross-account tracker deletion via unconstrained lookup

Published Jan 20, 2026 · Updated Jan 20, 2026

Authorization bypass in Revive Adserver 6.0.4 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to delete trackers owned by other accounts. The tracker-delete.php script looked up each supplied trackerid without constraining the query by clientid, so the deletion loop accepted a cross-account tracker key. The account must have tracker-deletion permission, and successful exploitation removes another account's tracker and can disrupt tracking data.
