What is CVE-2026-53548?

The Termix platform has a vulnerability due to improper enforcement of host ownership, which allows authenticated users to access another user's SSH and sudo passwords. This occurs via the GET /host/db/host/:id/password endpoint, where user requests can enumerate host IDs and retrieve plaintext credentials that can facilitate unauthorized access to secure environments. The issue has been addressed in version 2.6.1 to ensure proper access controls are in place.

Affected Version(s)

Termix < 2.3.2
