Vulnerability in almirhodzic/nova-toggle-5 (CVE-2026-42202)

Summary

Vulnerability in almirhodzic/nova-toggle-5 (CVE-2026-42202). Data can be tampered with by attackers. Exploitable via POST /nova-vendor/nova-toggle/toggle/{resource}/{resourceId}. Mitigation: upgrade to 1.3.0 or later.

Original description

The description as published by the source.

nova-toggle-5 enables fliping booleans in the index. Prior to version 1.3.0, the toggle endpoint (POST/nova-vendor/nova-toggle/toggle/{resource}/{resourceId}) was protected only by web + auth: middleware. Any user authenticated on the configured guard could call the endpoint and flip boolean attributes on any Nova resource — including users who do not have access to Nova itself (for example, frontend customers sharing the web guard with the Nova admin area). The endpoint also accepted an arbitrary attribute parameter, which meant a valid caller could toggle any boolean column on the underlying model — not just columns exposed as Toggle fields on the resource. This issue has been patched in version 1.3.0.

🛡️ Workaround

Workaround: Users who cannot upgrade immediately can either remove the package or restrict access to the /nova-vendor/nova-toggle/toggle/* routes via an additional middleware in their application that enforces the viewNova gate.

🔍 Detection

Search webserver/proxy logs for unusual POST /nova-vendor/nova-toggle/toggle/{resource}/{resourceId} requests with malformed payloads or SQL meta-characters. Run grep -r 'almirhodzic/nova-toggle-5' . against your dependency files (package-lock.json, requirements.txt, go.sum) to find affected services.

Response actions

Concrete steps and command examples for SOC/SRE teams to execute in order

  1. 1
    Identify exposure identify
    grep -r 'almirhodzic/nova-toggle-5' . | 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 almirhodzic/nova-toggle-5 を grep し、稼働しているサービス・バージョンを把握する。

  2. 2
    Hunt for indicators of compromise detect
    grep 'POST /nova-vendor/nova-toggle/toggle/{resource}/{resourceId}' /var/log/nginx/access.log | grep -E '(unusual_payload|sqli_pattern)'

    アクセスログで POST /nova-vendor/nova-toggle/toggle/{resource}/{resourceId} 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。

  3. 3
    Apply temporary workaround mitigate
    Users who cannot upgrade immediately can either remove the package or restrict access to the `/nova-vendor/nova-toggle/toggle/*` routes via an additional middleware in their application that enforces the `viewNova` gate.

    パッチが適用されるまでの応急処置として、Users who cannot upgrade immediately can either remove the package or restrict access to the /nova-vendor/nova-toggle/toggle/* routes via an additional middleware in their application that enforces the viewNova gate. を実施。回避策の副作用 (機能低下) を確認した上で。

  4. 4
    Apply patch patch
    Upgrade almirhodzic/nova-toggle-5 to 1.3.0

    ステージング環境で 1.3.0 に上げて回帰テスト → 本番反映。回帰テストはアプリの主要ハッピーパスと、Step 2 で見つけた異常検知の続報チェックを含めること。

  5. 5
    Post-deployment verification verify
    Replay attack against POST /nova-vendor/nova-toggle/toggle/{resource}/{resourceId} 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。
