No EUVD known-exploited evidence

A vulnerability was found in Cleo Harmony up to 5.8.1.10. The affected element is an unknown function of the file /api/connections of the component JWT Refresh Token Handler. Performing a manipulation of the argument Bearer results in improper privilege management. The attack is possible to be carried out remotely. The exploit has been made public and could be used. Upgrading to version 5.8.1.11 is sufficient to fix this issue. It is recommended to upgrade the affected component.

What, why and how

A vulnerability was found in Cleo Harmony up to 5.8.1.10. The affected element is an unknown function of the file /api/connections of the component JWT Refresh Token Handler. Performing a manipulation of the argument Bearer results in improper privilege management. The attack is possible to be carried out remotely. The exploit has been made public and could be used. Upgrading to version 5.8.1.11 is sufficient to fix this issue. It is recommended to upgrade the affected component.

What

A vulnerability was found in Cleo Harmony up to 5.8.1.10. The affected element is an unknown function of the file /api/connections of the component JWT Refresh Token Handler. Performing a manipulation of the argument Bearer results in improper privilege management. The attack is possible to be carried out remotely. The exploit has been made public and could be used. Upgrading to version 5.8.1.11 is sufficient to fix this issue. It is recommended to upgrade the affected component.

Why

The product does not properly assign, modify, track, or check privileges for an actor, creating an unintended sphere of control for that actor.

How

An attacker operating through a network path may attempt exploitation without authentication or user interaction. If successful, the issue may cause the confidentiality, integrity or availability impact described by the vendor.

Exploit reality and attack path

CVSS severity, EPSS forecast probability, public exploit material and CISA-confirmed exploitation are separate signals.

Observed exploitation
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
No confirmed evidence

No CISA KEV match was present at the last successful refresh. This means no confirmation from that source, not proof of no exploitation.

Public PoC / exploit material
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
Reference recorded

CISA Vulnrichment records proof-of-concept exploitation in its SSVC data. BlackTree has not independently executed or validated exploit material.

Likely attack path

Official EUVD record
CSIRT Italia · Italian · cleo-harmony-disponibile-poc-per-la-cve-2026-84115Cleo Harmony: disponibile PoC per la CVE-2026-84115

La vulnerabilità identificata tramite la CVE-2026-84115, di tipo " Improper Privilege Management " e con score CVSS v3.x pari a 8.3, è causata da una gestione non adeguata dei privilegi nel componente preposto alla gestione del refresh dei token JWT, associato all'endpoint /api/connections . Tale vulnerabilità, qualora sfruttata da un attaccante remoto attraverso la manipolazione del parametro Bearer in richieste opportunamente predisposte, potrebbe consentire l'elusione dei meccanismi di sicurezza e l'elevazione dei propri privilegi sui sistemi target. La vulnerabilità identificata tramite la CVE-2026-84114, di tipo "Improper Authentication" e con score CVSS v3.x pari a 6.3, è dovuta alla mancanza di una rigorosa sanificazione e verifica della firma/corrispondenza logica del token di asserzione. Un utente malintenzionato può inviare una richiesta di autenticazione SAML alterando o manipolando in modo mirato il campo stringa dell'email all'interno delle asserzioni passate alla funzione LocalUserUtil.getNativeUserByAssertions e, a causa della vulnerabilità, il sistema convalida l'accesso associando l'attaccante a un account legittimo esistente ottenendo accesso remoto al portale.
