Authentication Bypass in github.com/azukaar/cosmos-server (CVE-2026-49447)
Summary
Authentication bypass in github.com/azukaar/cosmos-server (CVE-2026-49447). Risk of unauthorized operations or information disclosure. Exploitable via GET /cosmos/api/constellation/public-devices. Mitigation: upgrade to 0.22.19 or later.
Original description
The description as published by the source.
Summary
GET /cosmos/api/constellation/public-devices discloses Constellation device metadata to a requester that supplies any non-empty Authorization header. The handler strips the string Bearer from the header but never validates the resulting token and never uses it in the database query.
This was confirmed locally by routing a request through the real tokenMiddleware with Authorization: Bearer not-a-real-token. The request returned public Constellation device metadata from a disposable fixture. A missing-header negative control returned 401 Unauthorized, proving the bypass is specifically the acceptance of arbitrary bearer values.
