Vulnerability in OpenViking (CVE-2026-34999)
Summary
Vulnerability in OpenViking (CVE-2026-34999). Risk of unauthorized operations or information disclosure. Exploitable via POST /bot/v1/chat.
Original description
The description as published by the source.
OpenViking versions 0.2.5 prior to 0.2.14 contain a missing authentication vulnerability in the bot proxy router that allows remote unauthenticated attackers to access protected bot proxy functionality by sending requests to the POST /bot/v1/chat and POST /bot/v1/chat/stream endpoints. Attackers can bypass authentication checks and interact directly with the upstream bot backend through the OpenViking proxy without providing valid credentials.

-
1Identify exposure identify
grep -r 'OpenViking' . | grep -v node_modulesリポジトリと本番環境の依存ファイル (package-lock.json / requirements.txt / go.sum / Gemfile.lock 等) で
OpenVikingを grep し、稼働しているサービス・バージョンを把握する。 -
2Hunt for indicators of compromise detect
grep 'POST /bot/v1/chat' /var/log/nginx/access.log | grep -E '(unusual_payload|sqli_pattern)'アクセスログで
POST /bot/v1/chatへの異常なリクエスト (不正な認証ヘッダ・SQLメタ文字)を過去 30〜90日分捜索。WAF/SIEM があれば該当パスのアラート発火履歴を確認。 -
3Post-deployment verification verify
Replay attack against POST /bot/v1/chat on staging to confirm patch closes the vectorパッチ適用後、ステージングで PoC または同等の悪用パターンを再現して脆弱性が閉じたことを確認。本番では Step 2 と同じログクエリでアラート再発が無いか継続監視。
