What is CVE-2026-42202?

The nova-toggle-5 package prior to version 1.3.0 allows authenticated users to exploit the toggle endpoint without proper authorization controls. This vulnerability permits any user with access to the configured authentication guard to manipulate boolean attributes on various Nova resources, including potential unauthorized access by frontend customers. Additionally, the endpoint's design allows arbitrary attribute parameters, enabling manipulation beyond intended toggle fields, potentially exposing sensitive data and functions within the application. The issue has been addressed in version 1.3.0.
