Published Nov 15, 2026 CVSS 4.0 · 6.9 Medium EPSS n/a KEV · Not listed
Description
A weakness has been identified in Linux Foundation Magma up to 1.9.0. The impacted element is an unknown function of the file orc8r/cloud/go/services/obsidian/access/operator.go of the component Obsidian REST. Executing a manipulation of the argument X-Magma-Client-Cert-Serial can lead to authentication bypass by spoofing. The attack can be launched remotely. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.

Analysis

AI-generated

Technical impact

A weakness in the Obsidian REST component of Linux Foundation Magma allows an attacker to manipulate the X‑Magma‑Client‑Cert‑Serial header, leading to authentication bypass. The flaw exists in an unidentified function in operator.go and can be exploited remotely, permitting unauthorized impersonation of legitimate clients and access to restricted resources.

Affected Systems

Linux Foundation Magma versions up to 1.9.0 are affected, specifically within the Obsidian REST service that processes the X‑Magma‑Client‑Cert‑Serial header during authentication.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 6.9 indicates moderate severity, the attack vector is remote via HTTP header manipulation, EPSS data is not available and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, suggesting a lower current exploitation probability but still requiring vigilance.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Apply the latest available update for Linux Foundation Magma, version 1.9.0 or later, once it is released.
  • Restrict REST API access to trusted internal hosts by configuring firewalls or ACLs.
  • Enforce strict client certificate validation and disable reliance on the X‑Magma‑Client‑Cert‑Serial header for authentication; reject requests with spoofed or missing client certificate headers.
  • Monitor REST API logs for unauthorized access attempts and review access controls regularly.
