CVE-2026-23958 is a critical vulnerability affecting Dataease versions prior to 2.10.19, where the MD5 hash of a user's password was used as the JWT signing secret. This allows an unauthenticated attacker to brute-force administrator passwords by exploiting unmonitored API endpoints that validate JWT tokens. With a CVSS score of 9.8 (Critical), this vulnerability presents a severe risk of complete compromise (confidentiality, integrity, and availability) due to its network-based attack vector and low attack complexity. Currently, there is no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or significant community discussion, and it is not listed in the KEV catalog.
