Nearly 1 in 10 Exposed LiteLLM Gateways Accepted the Example "sk-1234" Admin Key
Wiz found 294 of 3,074 internet-facing LiteLLM gateways accepted the documented default admin key sk-1234, exposing provider API keys and cloud IAM credentials.
Wiz Research's February Shodan scan found 3,074 LiteLLM gateways, 294 of which accepted the setup guide's sk-1234 admin key; 191 had no master key set and would accept any credential. The master key doubles as the authentication switch, and before 1.82.0-stable a gateway started without one granted every request full admin rights, exposing stored provider API keys, prompts, and MCP-connected tools. A documented pass-through endpoint lacks checks against private and cloud metadata addresses, letting an admin-key holder retrieve cloud IAM credentials, though no real-world abuse is reported. Related LiteLLM flaws include CVE-2026-59821 (disputed guardrail code execution), CVE-2026-59822 (CVSS 8.8, added to CISA KEV on September 2 and observed against Wiz honeypots), and CVE-2026-42271, used to install a cryptominer.
Snowflake GitHub Actions Flaw Lets Crafted Issues Trigger Command Injection
Wiz disclosed a GitHub Actions workflow injection in Snowflake's snowflake-connector-net repo that exposed Jira API tokens; Snowflake patched the flaw.
Wiz disclosed a workflow injection flaw in Snowflake's snowflake-connector-net repository, where attacker-controlled GitHub issue fields were expanded directly into a shell run block. Wiz's Red Agent exploited it during authorized security testing, received an out-of-band runner callback and retrieved a Jira API token with read access to engineering, security compliance and bug bounty projects. Snowflake merged a fix on June 23, 2026, rotated the token and said its investigation found no evidence of unauthorized access. No CVE, CVSS score or KEV entry has been assigned for the issue.
