CVE-2026-56100
CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N
Summary
SpringBlade versions 2.7.3 through 3.5.0 contain a privilege escalation vulnerability that allows authenticated attackers to create system administrator accounts by sending crafted POST requests to an unprotected internal Feign user-creation endpoint exposed via @RestController without authorization checks. Attackers can exploit the gateway's authentication filter, which only validates JWT parsing without verifying user roles or caller identity, and leverage a hardcoded JWT signing key embedded in publicly available JARs to forge tokens and escalate privileges from a low-privilege user to administrator, enabling cross-tenant data pollution and persistent backdoor access.
