openpanel: Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor

CVE-2026-116819 is a high-severity exposure of sensitive information to an unauthorized actor vulnerability in openpanel from Openpanel-dev, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.5 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 3.0.0 as the first without the flaw, so updating openpanel to that release or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.3% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.

Official description

OpenPanel before 3.0.0 contains an information disclosure vulnerability that allows read-level project members to obtain plaintext integration secrets because the notification.rules query skips redactIntegration. Attackers can call the notification.rules tRPC query to retrieve Slack bot tokens, webhook URLs, and authorization headers for use against external systems.

The underlying weakness: Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor

The product exposes sensitive information to an actor that is not explicitly authorized to have access to that information.

How developers prevent this class of flaw

  • Compartmentalize the system to have safe areas where trust boundaries can be unambiguously drawn. Do not allow sensitive data to go outside of the trust boundary and always be careful when interfacing with a compartment outside of the safe area. Ensure that appropriate compartmentalization is built into the system design, and the compartmentalization allows for and reinforces privilege separation functionality. Architects and designers should rely on the principle of least privilege to decide the appropriate time to use privileges and the time to drop privileges.
