CVE-2026-32716

SciTokens is a reference library for generating and using SciTokens. Prior to version 1.9.6, the Enforcer incorrectly validates scope paths by using a simple prefix match (startswith). This allows a token with access to a specific path (e.g., /john) to also access sibling paths that start with the same prefix (e.g., /johnathan, /johnny), which is an Authorization Bypass. This issue has been patched in version 1.9.6.

Summary
  • (es) SciTokens es una biblioteca de referencia para generar y usar SciTokens. Antes de la versión 1.9.6, el Enforcer valida incorrectamente las rutas de alcance al usar una coincidencia de prefijo simple (startswith). Esto permite que un token con acceso a una ruta específica (por ejemplo, /john) también acceda a rutas hermanas que comienzan con el mismo prefijo (por ejemplo, /johnathan, /johnny), lo que constituye un bypass de autorización. Este problema ha sido parcheado en la versión 1.9.6.
