OpenSign: Insufficient Verification of Data Authenticity

CVE-2026-72544 is a high-severity insufficient verification of data authenticity vulnerability in OpenSign from OpenSignLabs, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.5 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an unauthenticated attacker, without any action from a user. Affected OpenSign versions: 2.37.0 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 0.25% 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

  1. Check which version of OpenSign you run against the affected versions below, and install the vendor's latest release.
  2. Until you can update, restrict network access to the affected service so it is not reachable from untrusted networks.

Official description

An integrity verification vulnerability in OpenSignLabs OpenSign through 2.37.0 allows unauthenticated remote attackers to forge document audit-trail entries via the triggerevent Parse cloud function. The function accepts viewer identity and IP address as caller-supplied parameters without authentication, allowing fabrication of arbitrary audit log entries. An attacker can tamper with the legal audit trail of any signed document, undermining non-repudiation.

The underlying weakness: Insufficient Verification of Data Authenticity

The product does not sufficiently verify the origin or authenticity of data, in a way that causes it to accept invalid data.
