CVE-2023-51442 is an authentication bypass vulnerability affecting Navidrome, an open-source music server, specifically within its subsonic endpoint. Attackers can gain unauthorized access to any known user account by forging a JSON Web Token (JWT) signed with a hardcoded "not so secret" key, but only on instances that have not been restarted since initial setup. This vulnerability carries a CVSS score of 8.6 (HIGH) due to its network-based attack vector, low complexity, and potential for high impact on availability, alongside limited confidentiality and integrity impact. While no active exploitation or public exploit code is currently reported, and community discussion is minimal, the issue has been patched in Navidrome version 0.50.2.
