An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2025-61926 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- github.com/ossf/allstar (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 0.0.0-20250721181116-e004ecb540d6\n- github.com/ossf/allstar (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 0.0.0-20250721181116-e004ecb540d6\n- github.com/ossf/allstar (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 0.0.0-20250721181116-e004ecb540d6\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-61926/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-61926/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-61926","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-61926/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-61926","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-33f4-mjch-7fpr","GO-2025-4018"],"analysis":{"component_type":"developer_tool","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"GitHub security policy app","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can bypass webhook authentication in Allstar Reviewbot using a hard-coded secret, allowing unauthorized policy enforcement actions.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"hardcoded_credentials"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":4.6,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-798","name":"Use of Hard-coded Credentials"},{"id":"CWE-453","name":"Insecure Default Variable Initialization"}],"description":"Allstar is a GitHub App to set and enforce security policies. In versions prior to 4.5, a vulnerability in Allstar’s Reviewbot component caused inbound webhook requests to be validated against a hard-coded, shared secret. The value used for the secret token was compiled into the Allstar binary and could not be configured at runtime. In practice, this meant that every deployment using Reviewbot would validate requests with the same secret unless the operator modified source code and rebuilt the component - an expectation that is not documented and is easy to miss. All Allstar releases prior to v4.5 that include the Reviewbot code path are affected. Deployments on v4.5 and later are not affected. Those who have not enabled or exposed the Reviewbot endpoint are not exposed to this issue.","ecosystems":["Go"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Allstar Reviewbot has Authentication Bypass via Hard-coded Webhook Secret","id":"CVE-2025-61926","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Go","product":null,"products":[],"type":"hardcoded_credentials","year":"2025"},"n_packages":3,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Happy-DOM has VM Context Escape","id":"CVE-2025-61927"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["0.0.0-20250721181116-e004ecb540d6"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/ossf/allstar","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-33f4-mjch-7fpr"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["0.0.0-20250721181116-e004ecb540d6"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/ossf/allstar","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/ossf/allstar","source":"GHSA-33f4-mjch-7fpr"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["0.0.0-20250721181116-e004ecb540d6"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/ossf/allstar","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/ossf/allstar","source":"GO-2025-4018"}],"prev":{"headline":"Astro's `X-Forwarded-Host` is reflected with no validation","id":"CVE-2025-61925"},"products":["allstar"],"published":"2025-10-09","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"Go Vulnerability Database","prefix":"GO"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-10-16","vendors":["ossf"]},"summary":"Attackers can bypass webhook authentication in Allstar Reviewbot using a hard-coded secret, allowing unauthorized policy enforcement actions.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-61926/"}
