CVE-2026-78550

The Okta Access Gateway management console passes user-supplied input to eval() without sanitization during an authenticated administrator SSH session. As a result, the unsanitized input is executed directly, leading to code execution with the privileges of the management console.

What the metrics mean

  • It is reachable over a network, without needing local access.
  • For an attacker who can reach it, exploitation depends on conditions outside the attacker's control.
  • To exploit it, an administrative account is needed.
  • Beyond that, no action by a user is required.
