CVE-2023-2158 is a critical user impersonation vulnerability affecting Code Dx versions prior to 2023.4.2. A malicious actor can craft a custom "Remember Me" token due to a hard-coded cipher, allowing them to impersonate any user on a separate Code Dx system if they know the target username. This vulnerability has a CVSS v3.1 score of 9.8 (CRITICAL) due to its network-based attack vector, low attack complexity, and high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. While no active exploitation, public exploit code, or significant community discussion has been observed, the EPSS score indicates a low but present probability of exploitation.
