CVE-2026-23782: n/a
An issue was discovered in BMC Control-M/MFT 9.0.20 through 9.0.22. An API management endpoint allows unauthenticated users to obtain both an API identifier and its corresponding secret value. With these exposed secrets, an attacker could invoke privileged API operations, potentially leading to unauthorized access.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
An unauthenticated access vulnerability exists in BMC Control-M/MFT versions 9.0.20 through 9.0.22, where an API management endpoint improperly exposes both an API identifier and its secret. This allows attackers to perform privileged API operations without authentication, potentially leading to unauthorized access. The vulnerability is tracked as CVE-2026-23782 with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.5 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N). No official patch or remediation level has been published by the vendor as of the current information.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow an unauthenticated attacker to obtain API credentials and invoke privileged API operations, resulting in unauthorized access to sensitive functions within BMC Control-M/MFT. The confidentiality impact is high, while integrity and availability impacts are not indicated. No known active exploitation has been reported.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Since no official fix or mitigation level is provided, users should monitor vendor communications for updates. Until a patch is available, restrict access to the API management endpoint through network controls or other compensating measures to prevent unauthenticated access.
