CVE-2026-22706Network attack vector

Persistent account access via conditional token revocation

Published May 14, 2026 · Updated May 14, 2026

Insufficient session expiration in Strapi before 5.33.3 allows remote authenticated users with a refresh token to retain access after password reset. The users-permissions and admin authentication controllers revoked tokens only when a caller supplied deviceId, so requests without it left every prior session active. Exploitation requires a previously obtained refresh token and permits new access tokens for up to the token lifetime after credentials change.
