CVE-2026-1220196amTech 6valley improper authorization

High priorityMedium5.5EPSS 0.29%, higher than 22% of scored CVEs

CVE-2026-122019 is a improper authorization in 6amTech 6valley, rated medium (5.5 on CVSS 4.0).

Why this priority: A public proof of concept exists and exploitation can be automated.

Published · Updated · NVD status: Deferred

What it is

The software does not check, or checks wrongly, whether a caller may do something. Changing an identifier in a request reaches another user's records.

How it is reached

An attacker can exploit it over the network, without an account, and nobody has to click anything.

What an attacker gains

The direct impact is limited: partial access to data or a partial outage. In practice, this kind of flaw lets an attacker reach data or actions their role should not allow.

Is it being exploited?

CISA's SSVC assessment notes a public proof of concept. It can be exploited automatically, at scale. EPSS estimates a 0.29% chance of exploitation activity in the next 30 days, higher than 22% of scored CVEs.

What to do

  1. No fixed version is listed yet. Find every place 6amTech 6valley runs, watch the references for a fix, and plan a replacement if it is no longer supported.
  2. While there is no fix, keep it off the internet or behind a VPN, allowlist or authenticating proxy.

Description from NVD

A vulnerability was identified in 6amTech 6valley 16.0. Impacted is the function existingAccountCheck of the file /api/v1/auth/existing-account-check of the component Social Login Flow. Such manipulation of the argument user_response leads to authorization bypass. The attack may be launched remotely. The exploit is publicly available and might be used.

What this means for your architecture.

A CVE names a product. Whether it matters depends on where that product sits in your systems: what reaches it, which trust boundary it guards and what it can reach once compromised. Veriom maps your components, their relationships and your trust boundaries from your code, cloud and delivery evidence, so you can see where a component like this sits. The radar itself does not look at your systems.

Components it touches

  • Permission checks in APIs and admin surfaces. The flaw sits between one role or tenant and another.
  • Multi-tenant services. The flaw sits between one role or tenant and another.

Trust boundaries in play

  • Internet-facing entry points. No account is needed. Any instance reachable from outside your perimeter, through a load balancer, gateway, VPN or exposed admin port, is in scope.
  • Between one role or tenant and another. An attacker who crosses it can reach data or actions their role should not allow.

Questions to answer about your own systems

  • Where does 6amTech 6valley run in your systems, and at which version?
  • Which of those instances can be reached from the internet or partner networks?
  • What can it reach once compromised: which data stores, secrets and services?
