Unauthorized approval of gated actions via unauthenticated endpoints
Published Jul 20, 2026 · Updated Jul 20, 2026
Missing authorization in Jovancoding Network-AI 5.0.0 through 5.12.1 allows remote attackers to approve gated actions via ApprovalInbox. ApprovalInbox's httpHandler sends requests to routeRequest without an authorization check, while wildcard CORS permits cross-origin listing and approval requests. Exploitation requires a running inbox and either browser interaction against its default loopback listener or network reachability after a non-loopback bind; attackers control the decision, not the queued action.
