Overview

CVE-2026-62988 is a critical-severity vulnerability. It was published on August 18, 2026 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.0 (CRITICAL).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.0, rated CRITICAL. It can be exploited remotely over the network. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.

Technical description

Froxlor is open source server administration software. From 2.3.7 until 2.3.8, the Customers.get, Customers.listing, Admins.get, Admins.listing, Ftps.get, and Ftps.listing API commands in lib/Froxlor/Api/Commands/Customers.php, lib/Froxlor/Api/Commands/Admins.php, and lib/Froxlor/Api/Commands/Ftps.php retrieve full database rows and return them without removing password and data_2fa fields. An authenticated API caller with permission to use these endpoints can obtain customer, administrator, and FTP password hashes as well as Base32-encoded TOTP seeds for administrator and customer accounts. Password hashes can be cracked offline, and TOTP seeds can generate valid second-factor codes until two-factor authentication is reset. Exposure of both values for an account can enable takeover of the hosting panel or hosted resources and can defeat both authentication factors. This issue is fixed in version 2.3.8.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. 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.
