CVE-2026-45414
Published:July 13, 2026
Updated:August 02, 2026
Description A JWT issued to an Org 1 account is accepted on the Org 2 API and can read the admin-only GraphQL "participantDetails" field for an Org 2 participant. The same trust-boundary problem also affects API-user authentication: an Org 1 API user can use a JWT on the Org 1 host and replay that JWT to the Org 2 API to read Org 2 participant personal data and reach Org 2's "proposal.answer" mutation path. Technical description The current host selects the Decidim organization context, but JWT-backed API authentication is not sufficiently bound to that host organization. As a result, the API can process a request in Org 2's context while still trusting an authenticated principal from Org 1. Reproduction steps: 1. Use an API key provided by the system administrator that is assigned to organization 1 to create the JWT token or get the JWT token shown in the response when logged in as the organization admin. <img width="1080" height="1119" alt="decidim-jwt-01" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/6195a250-faef-41d5-8f64-4d77d4077e96" />2. When using this JWT token it is possible to retrieve details from other organisations. Notice the change of the host header in the request below to that of another tenant "org2.localhost:3001" <img width="1085" height="1047" alt="decidim-jwt-02" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/d40825e3-0d36-44f3-bede-86d247bbe6d0" />Note that using a participant-generated JWT did not allow showing these results. Impact A JWT issued for one organization can be replayed successfully against another organization's API and used to retrieve sensitive details from that organization.
