CVE-2026-45108: Himmelblau: Authentication Bypass via Cross-User Local Session Impersonation in Device Authorization Grant (DAG) Flow

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 33/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.24% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. Special conditions such as timing or configuration are required.
  • Fixed version: himmelblau-idm himmelblau 3.1.5.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to himmelblau-idm himmelblau 3.1.5 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

Himmelblau is an interoperability suite for Microsoft Azure Entra ID and Intune. From 2.0.0 to before 3.1.5 and 2.3.11, Himmelblau contained an authentication bypass vulnerability in the Device Authorization Grant (DAG) flow that allowed a user within the same Entra ID domain to obtain a local Unix session as another user by providing their own valid credentials. The vulnerability existed in the token_validate function, which validated domain aliases for legitimate multi-domain scenarios but failed to verify that the local part (username) of the authenticated user's UPN matched the requested account username. The function only compared domains, not the complete usernames. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.1.5 and 2.3.11.

Exploit status

No known public exploit

No public exploit has been observed yet. That doesn't mean you're safe, only that the bar is a little higher.

Research context

For pentesters and researchers: attack profile, score disagreement, timeline, patch commits, credits, variant and chain candidates, bug bounty scope. All derived from existing data; no exploit code.

Timeline

From publication to today: proof of concept, Metasploit module, CISA KEV and fix record. Dates are as reported by the sources.

No dated events beyond publication.

No history yet (it accumulates with the daily EPSS job).

Patch and commit links

Commit, PR and diff links among the references. A starting point for patch-diffing and variant hunting; fixes, not exploits.

No commit or PR link among the references.

Credits

All researchers

Finders, reporters and analysts named in the CNA record. Click a name for that researcher’s other records.

No credits in the CNA record.

Variant candidates

Same product, same weakness class, within 18 months. If the patch missed the root cause, the sibling bug is here.

No nightly-computed relations.

Chain candidates

An authentication bypass and a privilege-requiring bug in the same product, published close together: combined they may become an unauthenticated path.
