CVE-2026-61729 PUBLISHED

SOCFortress CoPilot: Hardcoded Default Header Secret - Unauthenticated Active-Response Invocation and Alert Injection

Assigner: GitHub_M
Reserved: 10.07.2026 Published: 30.10.2026 Updated: 30.10.2026

SOCFortress CoPilot focuses on providing a single pane of glass for all your security operations needs. Prior to 0.1.76, verify_graylog_header in backend/app/active_response/routes/graylog.py and verify_velociraptor_header in backend/app/incidents/routes/incident_alert.py authenticate webhooks against GRAYLOG_API_HEADER_VALUE and VELOCIRAPTOR_API_HEADER_VALUE with the same publicly hardcoded fallback. The same default is shipped in .env.example. Deployments that leave either setting unset or unchanged permit an anonymous caller with the known header value to bypass the JWT authentication required by normal APIs. POST /api/graylog/invoke forwards attacker-selected COMMAND, ACTION, VALUE and AGENT_ID to the configured Wazuh manager without the command-enum validation of the authenticated invocation route, allowing active-response scripts to disrupt endpoints and manipulate defensive controls. POST /api/incidents/alerts/create/threshold and POST /api/incidents/alerts/create/velo-sigma accept forged alerts for arbitrary customer_code values and drive attacker-controlled OpenSearch queries. Active-response delivery requires a configured reachable Wazuh manager. Deployments with independently changed header secrets are not subject to this default-secret bypass. This issue is fixed in version 0.1.76.
