CVE-2026-21759

HCL Hive is affected by an information exposure vulnerability where Swagger documentation was found exposed publicly. Although no sensitive information (e.g., credentials, PII) was discovered, exposing API documentation to unauthenticated users can increase the overall attack surface.

What this means for your business

  • An attacker can use it remotely, over a network, without a login, but only after tricking someone into an action such as opening a file or a link.

What to do

  1. 1Ask your IT team or provider whether any of your systems use the affected product.
  2. 2If you do, follow the vendor's guidance. No patch reference has been published yet.

Not sure if your company is exposed?

Fastnexa’s certified penetration testers can check whether attackers could use this flaw, or others like it, against your websites, apps and network. The full test is free for our first 10 founding clients until 31 December 2026.
