CVE-2026-58491: Warpgate: Reflected XSS in SSO return endpoint via attacker-controlled next parameter

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 37/100)

  • 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: 0.45% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. A user must open a link or visit a page. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: warp-tech warpgate 0.25.5.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to warp-tech warpgate 0.25.5 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

Warpgate is an open source SSH, HTTPS and MySQL bastion host for Linux. Prior to 0.25.5, the /@warpgate/api/sso/providers/:name/start endpoint stores an attacker-controlled next parameter that the POST /@warpgate/api/sso/return handler inserts without HTML escaping into the response generated by warpgate-protocol-http/src/api/sso_provider_list.rs. A victim who follows a crafted link and completes SSO can cause markup and JavaScript to execute in the authenticated Warpgate origin, allowing access to session data and actions through user APIs, and through administrator APIs only when the victim is an administrator. The GET /@warpgate/api/sso/return path also uses the same unvalidated value as a redirect destination, enabling an open redirect. This issue is fixed in version 0.25.5.

Limit the impact of XSS

This is a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability. A well-configured Content-Security-Policy doesn't fix it, but greatly reduces its impact. Check your site's CSP and other security headers for free.
