CVE-2026-72545 – Unauthenticated IDOR / Authorization Bypass – OpenSign through 2.37.0

Be the first to know when new zero-days emerge:

Summary

CVE-2026-72545 is an insecure direct object reference (IDOR) / authorization bypass vulnerability in OpenSignLabs OpenSign through version 2.37.0. An unauthenticated remote attacker can write to any contact record through the updatecontacttour Parse cloud function, undermining data integrity. It carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.5 (High).

Technical details

  • Root cause: The updatecontacttour Parse cloud function lacks proper authentication and authorization checks (CWE-639: Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key).
  • Trigger conditions: An attacker invokes the exposed cloud function referencing an arbitrary contact record identifier; no valid credentials or session are required.
  • Attack vector: Network — the function is reachable remotely over the application’s Parse backend without authentication or user interaction.
  • Impact: Unauthenticated modification/overwrite of any contact record, compromising the integrity of contact data across the system. No confidentiality or availability impact is indicated.

Affected software

  • OpenSignLabs OpenSign — all versions from 0 through and including 2.37.0.

Severity

  • CVSS v3.1 base score: 7.5 (High)
  • Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N

Mitigation and recommended actions

  • Immediate: Upgrade to an OpenSign release later than 2.37.0. The latest available release at time of writing is 2.40.1.
  • If no patch can be applied immediately: Restrict network exposure of the OpenSign / Parse backend, place the application behind authenticated access controls or a reverse proxy that limits access to trusted networks, and monitor for unexpected modifications to contact records.

How IONIX’s External Exposure Management Platform Detects and Validates
Zero-Days to Shrink MTTR

1

Map your entire attack surface (continously)

IONIX uses multi-factor discovery methods, including DNS analysis, certificate mapping, metadata inspection, and more, to automatically map every internet-facing asset across your environment. This includes cloud instances, third-party platforms, shadow IT, and even forgotten infrastructure that traditional tools miss.

2

Monitor for new CVEs

Dozens of threat intel feeds using agentic technology are continuously analyzed to detect the appearance of proof-of-concept code, exploit kits, and indicators of active targeting. IONIX goes further by applying AI to proactively evaluate whether emerging vulnerabilities are likely to be exploited, even before PoCs go public.

3

Identify Potential External Exposures

Not all CVEs matter. IONIX filters vulnerabilities by asking attacker-centric questions: Can it be reached from the internet? Does it require authentication? Is it being exploited in the wild? This dramatically reduces noise and focuses teams on threats that can actually be weaponized.

4

Create Safe, Scalable Exploit Validations

IONIX transforms real-world PoCs into safe, non-intrusive test payloads that can be run in production environments without disruption. These simulations are precisely targeted to the systems that are vulnerable, ensuring rapid validation without unnecessary load.

5

Execute Exploit Validations

By combining context about software stack, versioning, exposure status, and reachability, IONIX ensures that only the right payloads are executed against the right assets, maximizing efficiency and minimizing risk.

6

Drive Fast and Actionable Remediation

Results are routed through integrations with ticketing, SOAR, and SIEM tools. Issues are written in plain language, bundled into remediation clusters, and prioritized based on asset criticality, exploitability, and blast radius. This shortens mean time to remediation (MTTR) and empowers teams to act with confidence.
