CVE-2026-86206, CVE-2026-86207: N-able N-central Authentication Bypass (FIXED)

Rapid7 disclosed two chained N-able N-central flaws, CVE-2026-86206 and CVE-2026-86207, enabling unauthenticated admin account creation; patched in 2026.3 Hotfix 3.

Rapid7 researchers found CVE-2026-86206 (semicolon/Forwarded access-control bypass, CWE-791, CVSSv4 6.9) and CVE-2026-86207 (UserTwoFactorLogin authentication bypass, CWE-305, CVSSv4 7.7) in the latest N-able N-central. Chained, they let a remote unauthenticated attacker create an attacker-controlled System administrator account. The bugs stem from Envoy and Jetty disagreeing on the requested path and whether the client is local. N-able patched both in N-central 2026.3 Hotfix 3, following the earlier CVE-2026-18577 authentication bypass.

  • Authentication Bypass and Account Takeover in N-able N-central (Incomplete Patch)
    CVE-2026-18577 is an authentication bypass (CWE-288) in N-able's N-central RMM platform caused by an incomplete patch for the earlier vulnerability CVE-2026-18556. Because the original fix can be bypassed via an alternate path or channel, a remote, unauthenticated attacker needs no privileges or user interaction, though the attack requires meeting exploit-specific conditions (high attack complexity, CVSS 4.0: 8.2 High). Successful exploitation lets the attacker bypass authentication and take over N-central accounts, gaining high-impact access to the management console with limited direct effects on downstream services. All N-central versions through 2026.3.1 are affected. Exploitation is confirmed in the wild: the flaw was added to CISA's KEV on 2026-08-03, EPSS estimates a 54.1% chance of exploitation within 30 days (99th percentile), and news reports say attackers kept exploiting it even as N-able shipped successive hotfixes; ransomware use is currently unknown.

  • Authentication bypass in N-able N-central internal APIs before 2026.3 HF 3
    CVE-2026-86207 is an authentication bypass (CWE-305) in N-able's N-central remote monitoring and management (RMM) platform that allows unauthorized access to APIs that are supposed to be internal-only. It is triggered over the network by sending requests to these internal API endpoints under specific conditions (the CVSS vector indicates some attack prerequisites and a low-privilege foothold are required). An attacker who exploits it gains highly privileged access to the N-central server's data and functions, with high impact on confidentiality, integrity and availability of the server itself. Organizations running any N-central release before version 2026.3 Hotfix 3 are affected — primarily managed service providers hosting N-central for their own operations. There is no public proof of concept, the flaw is not in CISA's KEV catalog, and EPSS puts 30-day exploitation risk at just 0.7%; note that the recent news headlines about actively exploited 'unauthenticated RCE' flaws in N-central describe separate vulnerabilities in the same product, which is why multiple hotfixes have shipped in quick succession.

  • Access Control Filter Bypass in N-able N-central Exposes Internal APIs
    N-able N-central contains a flaw in the access-control filter that protects its internal API (CWE-791, incomplete filtering), allowing requests to bypass the filter and reach internal APIs without authorization. The issue is exploitable over the network with no privileges and no user interaction, per the CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/PR:N/UI:N). An attacker gains unauthorized, low-impact access to internal APIs (VC:L); the vector indicates no integrity or availability impact and no evidence of code execution from this flaw. Any organization running an affected N-central release — a remote monitoring and management (RMM) platform operated by managed service providers — is affected, and the fix is available in N-central 2026.3 HF3 and 2026.4. The flaw is not on the CISA KEV list and has no known public PoC or confirmed in-the-wild exploitation, though it was disclosed in the same patching cycle as actively exploited N-central unauthenticated RCE flaws.
