CVE-2026-64623: Improper Verification of Cryptographic Signature in Jovancoding Network-AI
Network-AI before 5.13.4 contains an improper cryptographic signature verification vulnerability in APSAdapter where the default local verifier accepts any non-empty string as valid. Unauthenticated attackers can submit forged APS delegation payloads with arbitrary scopes to bypass signature verification and obtain signed permission-grant tokens for sensitive resources including SHELL_EXEC.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-64623 describes an improper cryptographic signature verification vulnerability in Jovancoding's Network-AI product prior to version 5.13.4. The vulnerability exists in the APSAdapter module, where the default local verifier incorrectly accepts any non-empty string as a valid signature. This allows unauthenticated attackers to submit forged APS delegation payloads with arbitrary scopes, effectively bypassing signature verification. As a result, attackers can obtain signed permission-grant tokens that grant access to sensitive resources such as SHELL_EXEC, potentially leading to unauthorized command execution.
Potential Impact
The vulnerability allows unauthenticated attackers to bypass cryptographic signature verification and obtain signed tokens granting permissions to sensitive resources, including shell execution capabilities. This can lead to unauthorized access and control over the affected system, posing a high security risk.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. No official fix or patch information is provided in the available data. Until a patch is available, restrict access to the APSAdapter component and monitor for suspicious activity related to delegation payloads.
