Threat metrics

Exploit Maturity: POC

Bold values are the worst case: easiest to exploit or largest impact.

Attack Vector: Network: The vulnerable system is bound to the network stack and the set of possible attackers extends beyond the other options listed below, up to and including the entire Internet. Such a vulnerability is often termed “remotely exploitable” and can be thought of as an attack being exploitable at the protocol level one or more network hops away (e.g., across one or more routers).
Attack Complexity: Low: The attacker must take no measurable action to exploit the vulnerability. The attack requires no target-specific circumvention to exploit the vulnerability. An attacker can expect repeatable success against the vulnerable system.
Attack Requirements: None: The successful attack does not depend on the deployment and execution conditions of the vulnerable system. The attacker can expect to be able to reach the vulnerability and execute the exploit under all or most instances of the vulnerability.
Privileges Required: None: The attacker is unauthorized prior to attack, and therefore does not require any access to settings or files of the vulnerable system to carry out an attack.
User Interaction: None: The vulnerable system can be exploited without interaction from any human user, other than the attacker.
Vulnerable system confidentiality: Low: There is some loss of confidentiality. Access to some restricted information is obtained, but the attacker does not have control over what information is obtained, or the amount or kind of loss is limited. The information disclosure does not cause a direct, serious loss to the Vulnerable System.
Vulnerable system integrity: None: There is no loss of integrity within the Vulnerable System.
Vulnerable system availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the Vulnerable System.
Subsequent system confidentiality: None: There is no loss of confidentiality within the Subsequent System or all confidentiality impact is constrained to the Vulnerable System.
Subsequent system integrity: None: There is no loss of integrity within the Subsequent System or all integrity impact is constrained to the Vulnerable System.
Subsequent system availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the Subsequent System or all availability impact is constrained to the Vulnerable System.
Exploit Maturity: POC: Based on threat intelligence sources each of the following must apply: · Proof-of-concept is publicly available · No knowledge of reported attempts to exploit this vulnerability · No knowledge of publicly available solutions used to simplify attempts to exploit the vulnerability

Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 23 Feb 2026
Detectable: no evidence on record.
No public nuclei template indexed
Weaponized: evidence found.
CVSS exploit maturity: proof of concept public
Exploited in the wildExploited: no evidence on record.
Not in CISA KEV and no source reports exploitation
Observed by OffSeq MirageSeen by Mirage: no evidence on record.
No attack traffic recorded by OffSeq Mirage sensors

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), CVSS vector, the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 29 Oct 2026.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponized: A Metasploit exploit module or Exploit-DB entry exists (Metasploit scanner modules do not count), or CISA SSVC or the CVSS exploit maturity reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

AI-suggested

To mitigate CVE-2026-2975, organizations should first verify if they are using affected versions of FastApiAdmin (2.0, 2.1, or 2.2.0) and plan immediate upgrades once patches become available. Until official patches are released, restrict access to the reset_api_docs endpoint by implementing network-level controls such as IP whitelisting, VPN requirements, or firewall rules limiting access to trusted internal users only. Employ web application firewalls (WAFs) to detect and block suspicious requests targeting the Custom Documentation Endpoint. Additionally, monitor logs for unusual access patterns or repeated requests to the reset_api_docs function. Consider disabling or restricting the API documentation endpoint if it is not essential for daily operations. Regularly review and update API security policies and ensure that sensitive endpoints are protected by authentication and authorization mechanisms. Finally, maintain an incident response plan to quickly address any detected exploitation attempts.

Description

A security flaw has been discovered in FastApiAdmin up to 2.2.0. Affected by this vulnerability is the function reset_api_docs of the file /backend/app/plugin/init_app.py of the component Custom Documentation Endpoint. The manipulation results in information disclosure. The attack may be performed from remote. The exploit has been released to the public and may be used for attacks.

Impact

The primary impact of CVE-2026-2975 is unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information, which can aid attackers in mapping internal APIs, understanding system configurations, or identifying further vulnerabilities. This can lead to increased risk of targeted attacks such as privilege escalation, data breaches, or lateral movement within networks. Organizations relying on FastApiAdmin for managing API documentation or administrative tasks may inadvertently expose critical information to external attackers. The lack of authentication and user interaction requirements makes this vulnerability easier to exploit remotely, increasing the attack surface. While the vulnerability does not directly disrupt system availability or data integrity, the confidentiality breach can have significant downstream effects, including compliance violations, reputational damage, and facilitation of more severe attacks.
