Critical WSO2 Vulnerability Allow Hackers to Gain Full Admin Access

WSO2 discloses CVE-2026-5430 (CVSS 10.0), an unauthenticated JWT authentication bypass allowing admin account takeover across its API management products.

WSO2 disclosed CVE-2026-5430, a critical authentication bypass (CVSS 10.0; 9.8 for single-tenant deployments) in advisory WSO2-2026-5328. The flaw stems from insecure JWT processing: tokens signed with unsupported algorithms bypass authentication checks, potentially granting unauthenticated attackers administrative access. Affected products include WSO2 API Control Plane 4.5.0-4.6.0, API Manager 4.1.0-4.6.0, Traffic Manager 4.5.0-4.6.0, and Universal Gateway 4.5.0-4.6.0. Fixes are available via update levels such as API Manager 4.6.0 update 21 or by migrating to unaffected releases.
