Several API endpoints can be accessed by users without correct authentication/authorization. The main API endpoints affected by this are /api/v3/crypto/certificatekeypairs/<uuid>/view_certificate/, /api/v3/crypto/certificatekeypairs/<uuid>/view_private_key/, and /api/v3/.../used_by/. Note that all of the affected API endpoints require the knowledge of the ID of an object, which especially for certificates is not accessible to an unprivileged user. Additionally the IDs for most objects are UUIDv4, meaning they are not easily guessable/enumerable. authentik 2024.4.4, 2024.6.4 and 2024.8.0 fix this issue.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:L/A:N","score":7.5},"cwes":["CWE-285"],"references":["https://github.com/goauthentik/authentik/commit/19318d4c00bb02c4ec3c4f8f15ac2e1dbe8d846c","https://github.com/goauthentik/authentik/commit/359b343f51524342a5ca03828e7c975a1d654b11","https://github.com/goauthentik/authentik/security/advisories/GHSA-qxqc-27pr-wgc8"],"products":["goauthentik:authentik"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T21:54:16.205165117+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2024-42490","score":0.00477,"percentile":0.41183,"date":"2026-11-01"},"kev":null,"osv":[{"id":"GHSA-qxqc-27pr-wgc8","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-qxqc-27pr-wgc8","summary":"GoAuthentik vulnerable to Insufficient Authorization for several API endpoints","modified":"2026-04-17T04:57:10.157926961Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"Go","name":"goauthentik.io","purl":"pkg:golang/goauthentik.io","ranges":[">=2024.6.0-rc1 <2024.6.4"],"fixed":["2024.6.4"]},{"ecosystem":"Go","name":"goauthentik.io","purl":"pkg:golang/goauthentik.io","ranges":["<2024.4.4"],"fixed":["2024.4.4"]}]},{"id":"GO-2024-3085","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GO-2024-3085","summary":"GoAuthentik vulnerable to Insufficient Authorization for several API endpoints in goauthentik.io","modified":"2026-04-17T04:57:10.157926961Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"Go","name":"goauthentik.io","purl":"pkg:golang/goauthentik.io","ranges":["all versions"],"fixed":[]}]}],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
