What is CVE-2026-68923?

CVE-2026-68923 is a medium-severity vulnerability in Mobile-Security-Framework-MobSF, published on 18 Aug 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.

Official description

MobSF is a mobile application security testing tool used. Prior to 4.5.1, mobsf/MobSF/settings.py places django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware only in the deprecated MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES setting and omits it from the active MIDDLEWARE tuple, allowing a remote attacker to make a logged-in victim submit cross-site POST requests to authenticated web endpoints including /delete_scan/, /upload/, /download_scan/, /change_password/, /create_user/, and /delete_user/. This can delete scans, upload or download applications, change passwords, or manage users with the victim account permissions. This issue is fixed in version 4.5.1.

Weakness: CWE-352
