CVE-2024-8995
4.9 · MEDIUMOverview
CVE-2024-8995 is a medium-severity vulnerability affecting wso2 api_control_plane. It was published on August 6, 2026 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 4.9 (MEDIUM).
This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 4.9, rated MEDIUM. It can be exploited remotely over the network. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.
Technical Description
Unused authorization codes issued to deleted users are not being properly invalidated or removed from the system. This allows for the persistence of these codes, enabling them to be potentially reused.
If an attacker possesses both the authorization code and the associated client credentials (client ID and client secret), they can leverage these unused codes to obtain access tokens on behalf of users who have already been deleted. This may lead to unauthorized access to sensitive resources and services, contingent on the scopes originally authorized for the compromised authorization code.
Remediation
Check the references section for vendor advisories and patches from wso2. Update api_control_plane to the latest patched version. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
