Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Opcenter X versions prior to V2604
Description
An issue exists where the application does not properly validate the algorithm specified in the JSON Web Token (JWT) header during token verification. This flaw, known as JWT algorithm confusion, allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to forge arbitrary tokens by manipulating the
alg value in the header. By presenting these forged tokens to endpoints that trust JWT-based authentication, an attacker can bypass authentication mechanisms and impersonate any user, including administrative accounts, potentially gaining full unauthorized access to the application and its data.Recommendations
Upgrade to version V2604.
Fix
