postiz-app: Authentication Bypass by Spoofing

Published Updated By the CyberSecBulletin desk

CVE-2026-115933 is a critical-severity authentication bypass by spoofing vulnerability in postiz-app from GitroomHQ, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.9 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an attacker with a low-privileged account, without any action from a user. The record lists version 2.25.3 as the first without the flaw, so updating postiz-app to that release or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.25% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.

Official description

Postiz signs its session, invitation and password reset tokens with one shared secret and without any marker of what a token is for. A route that refreshes the credentials of a browser-extension channel signed data taken from the request itself and stored the result where the requesting user can read it back. A user could therefore obtain a validly signed token containing any claims they choose, which the application accepts as a session, as an organization invitation with a chosen role, as a password reset or as an enterprise provisioning token. A second, narrower route that creates team invitations signs extra fields from the request body in the same way.

The underlying weakness: Authentication Bypass by Spoofing
