MaxKey: Permissive List of Allowed Inputs
CVE-2026-67345 is a high-severity permissive list of allowed inputs vulnerability in MaxKey from Dromara, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.1 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an unauthenticated attacker, but only if a user takes part, for example by opening a link or file. Affected MaxKey versions: 4.1.12 and earlier. The record does not name a fixed version, so check the vendor advisory. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.56% 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
- Check which version of MaxKey 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.
- Because the attack needs a user to take part, warn users about unexpected links and files related to this product until it is patched.

Official description
MaxKey through 4.1.12, fixed in commit ddbb72f, contains an insufficient redirect URI validation vulnerability in DefaultRedirectResolver.hostMatches() that allows remote attackers to hijack OAuth 2.0 authorization codes by supplying a crafted redirect_uri whose hostname suffix matches a registered URI without proper dot-boundary anchoring. Attackers who control a domain ending with the registered redirect URI hostname can social-engineer victims into clicking a crafted authorization URL, causing the authorization code to be issued to the attacker-controlled URI and exchanged for an access token granting access to the victim's identity.

The underlying weakness: Permissive List of Allowed Inputs
The product implements a protection mechanism that relies on a list of inputs (or properties of inputs) that are explicitly allowed by policy because the inputs are assumed to be safe, but the list is too permissive - that is, it allows an input that is unsafe, leading to resultant weaknesses.
