TVox: Reliance on Untrusted Inputs in a Security Decision
CVE-2026-64827 is a critical-severity reliance on untrusted inputs in a security decision vulnerability in TVox from Telenia Software, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.8 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an unauthenticated attacker, without any action from a user. Affected TVox versions: 26.0.0 through 26.5.3; 24.0.0 through 24.9.21. The record does not name a fixed version, so check the vendor advisory. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.83% chance of exploitation within 30 days, higher than 58% of scored CVEs.
Critical severity: a successful attack would have severe impact.
What to do
- Check which version of TVox you run against the affected versions below, and install the vendor's latest release.
- Until you can update, restrict network access to the affected service so it is not reachable from untrusted networks.
Affected products and versions
| Vendor | Product | Affected versions | Fixed in |
|---|---|---|---|
| Telenia Software | TVox | 26.0.0 through 26.5.3; 24.0.0 through 24.9.21 | Not stated |

Official description
Telenia Software TVox 26.5.3 and prior 26.x versions, and 24.9.21 and prior 24.x versions, contain an authentication bypass vulnerability in set_env.php where the redirectToLoginAdminIRequestHaveAccessToken() function derives the current page name from PHP_SELF and skips authentication when the value matches 'login_admin.php'. Attackers can append '/login_admin.php' to the path of any target PHP script to cause the authentication check to pass and gain unauthenticated access to all PHP scripts under the manager HTML directory.

The underlying weakness: Reliance on Untrusted Inputs in a Security Decision
The product uses a protection mechanism that relies on the existence or values of an input, but the input can be modified by an untrusted actor in a way that bypasses the protection mechanism.
How developers prevent this class of flaw
- Use a vetted library or framework that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid. With a stateless protocol such as HTTP, use a framework that maintains the state for you. Examples include ASP.NET View State and the OWASP ESAPI Session Management feature. Be careful of language features that provide state support, since these might be provided as a convenience to the programmer and may not be considering security.
- For any security checks that are performed on the client side, ensure that these checks are duplicated on the server side, in order to avoid CWE-602. Attackers can bypass the client-side checks by modifying values after the checks have been performed, or by changing the client to remove the client-side checks entirely. Then, these modified values would be submitted to the server.
- When using PHP, configure the application so that it does not use register_globals. During implementation, develop the application so that it does not rely on this feature, but be wary of implementing a register_globals emulation that is subject to weaknesses such as CWE-95, CWE-621, and similar issues.
