Exploit Attempts for GPUStack Authentication Bypass (CVE-2026-102895), (Thu, Nov 12th)
The Brief · written from 3 sources
- GPUStack versions before v2.2.0 let any request whose source counts as loopback be promoted to the built-in administrator account when forceauthlocalhost is False, which is the default.
- The loopback source can be a reverse-proxy TCP peer or an X-GPUStack-Real-IP header, so an attacker can gain unauthenticated admin access.
- CISA added the flaw to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on Monday, citing evidence of active exploitation.
Why it matters
Anyone running GPUStack behind a reverse proxy with default settings may have an admin backdoor reachable without credentials, and CISA reports it is being exploited.
Who’s affected
- GPUStack operators running versions before v2.2.0
What to do
- Upgrade GPUStack to v2.2.0 or later
- GPUStack 2.2.0
