CVE-2026-111617: Missing Authentication for Critical Function in MGdaasLab WHartTest
Description
WHartTest through 2.8.1 contains a missing authentication vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to connect to the /ws/ui/web/ and /ws/ui/actuator/ WebSocket endpoints because UiAutomationConsumer accepts every connection. Attackers can register an actuator with a client-supplied id to intercept other users' test-case payloads, receive broadcast step results, and spoof results and screen frames into victim sessions.

Technical Analysis
CVE-2026-111617 describes a missing authentication vulnerability in MGdaasLab's WHartTest product through version 2.8.1. The vulnerability exists because the UiAutomationConsumer component accepts all WebSocket connections without authentication at the /ws/ui/web/ and /ws/ui/actuator/ endpoints. Exploiting this, attackers can register actuators using client-supplied IDs, intercept other users' test-case payloads, receive broadcast step results, and spoof results and screen frames into victim sessions.
Potential Impact
Unauthenticated attackers can connect to critical WebSocket endpoints and impersonate actuators, leading to interception of sensitive test-case data and manipulation of broadcasted results and screen frames. This compromises the integrity and confidentiality of test sessions within WHartTest.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, restrict access to the affected WebSocket endpoints and monitor for unauthorized connections if possible.
