Edito CMS: Improper Verification of Cryptographic Signature
CVE-2026-59074 is a high-severity improper verification of cryptographic signature vulnerability in Edito CMS from Edito, with a CVSS 4.0 base score of 8.7 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 5.10.2607 as the first without the flaw, so updating Edito CMS to that release or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.19% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.
High severity with no evidence of exploitation so far.
What to do
- Update Edito CMS to 5.10.2607 or a later version.

Official description
Edito CMS is vulnerable to improper cryptographic signature verification in the JWT refresh logic. An authenticated low-privilege user can submit self-crafted JWT containing an existing user identifier and, due to the lack of signature validation, obtain a valid, fully-signed session token for any account in the system. This allows the attacker to impersonate any user, including administrators. This issue was fixed in version 5.10.2607. Hotfixes for older versions (5.8) have also been released.
