Access Control System (GKS): Missing Authorization

Published Updated By the CyberSecBulletin desk

CVE-2026-8377 is a high-severity missing authorization vulnerability in Access Control System (GKS) from Armiya Information Technologies Ltd. Co., with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.2 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an unauthenticated attacker, without any action from a user. The record lists version Version 2 as the first without the flaw, so updating Access Control System (GKS) to that release or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.34% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.

Next patch cycle

High severity with no evidence of exploitation so far.

What to do

  1. Update Access Control System (GKS) to Version 2 or a later version.
  2. Until you can update, restrict network access to the affected service so it is not reachable from untrusted networks.

Official description

Missing Authorization vulnerability in Armiya Information Technologies Ltd. Co. Access Control System (GKS) allows Collect Data from Common Resource Locations. This issue affects Access Control System (GKS): before Version 2.

The underlying weakness: Missing Authorization

The product does not perform an authorization check when an actor attempts to access a resource or perform an action.

How developers prevent this class of flaw

  • Divide the product into anonymous, normal, privileged, and administrative areas. Reduce the attack surface by carefully mapping roles with data and functionality. Use role-based access control (RBAC) to enforce the roles at the appropriate boundaries. Note that this approach may not protect against horizontal authorization, i.e., it will not protect a user from attacking others with the same role.
  • Ensure that access control checks are performed related to the business logic. These checks may be different than the access control checks that are applied to more generic resources such as files, connections, processes, memory, and database records. For example, a database may restrict access for medical records to a specific database user, but each record might only be intended to be accessible to the patient and the patient's doctor.
  • Use a vetted library or framework that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid. For example, consider using authorization frameworks such as the JAAS Authorization Framework and the OWASP ESAPI Access Control feature.
