Prior to 1.8.0, the AuthenticationHelper.canAccess function uses ctx.originalUrl to verify if an API key or OAuth token has the required scopes for a request. It extracts the resource by splitting the URL by / and taking the last segment. However, it fails to strip the URL fragment (#). Because Koa's router uses ctx.path (which strips the fragment) for routing, an attacker can append a fragment containing a permitted path (e.g., #foo/api/documents.info) to a restricted endpoint (e.g., /api/documents.create). The router will route the request to the restricted endpoint, but canAccess will evaluate the permitted path in the fragment, bypassing the API key scope restrictions and allowing privilege escalation. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.8.0.","cvss_v4":{"vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","score":5.3},"cvss_v3":null,"cwes":["CWE-863"],"references":["https://github.com/outline/outline/security/advisories/GHSA-5x79-rj4g-qrh8"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:41:17.107060303+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-54573","score":0.00498,"percentile":0.42734,"date":"2026-10-31"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"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).
