CVE-2026-44595
CWE-862Published: July 16, 2026· Updated: Jul 18, 2026
Official Description
Yamcs is a mission control framework. Prior to 5.12.7, the IAM API endpoints listUsers, getUser, listGroups, and getGroup in yamcs-core did not enforce the required SystemPrivilege.ControlAccess check in yamcs-core/src/main/java/org/yamcs/http/api/IamApi.java, so any authenticated user, even one with low or no privileges, could enumerate all user accounts in the system including their usernames, superuser status, and group memberships. This issue is fixed in versions 5.12.7 and 5.13.0.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2026-44595 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires low privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
A proof-of-concept (PoC) exploit exists for CVE-2026-44595. While not yet confirmed in active campaigns, the availability of PoC code increases exploitation risk substantially.
