AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N
Network interception required for token capture justifies AC:H; no auth or user interaction needed; spoofing grants full victim-identity access (C:H/I:H), no availability impact.

Authentication bypass by capture-replay in Microsoft Authentication Library (MSAL) for Node.js allows an unauthorized attacker to perform spoofing over a network.
Articles & Coverage 1
AnalysisAI
Authentication bypass via capture-replay in Microsoft Authentication Library (MSAL) for Node.js versions 1.0.0 through 5.5.x allows an unauthenticated network-adjacent attacker to spoof authenticated identity by replaying captured tokens. The CWE-294 root cause means a previously captured authentication artifact can be reused to impersonate a legitimate user, yielding high confidentiality and integrity impact consistent with the CVSS C:H/I:H scores. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires the attacker to achieve a network-intercept position capable of capturing a live MSAL authentication token from a Node.js application - for example, man-in-the-middle on a shared network segment, rogue Wi-Fi AP, or DNS/BGP hijack. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 score of 7.4 with vector AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N accurately reflects the risk profile: exploitation is remotely feasible but requires a network-intercept position (AC:H), which substantially limits the attacker pool. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | Upgrade @azure/msal-node to version 5.6.0 or later, which is confirmed as the fix boundary per EUVD-2026-73922 and the MSRC advisory at https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/vulnerability/CVE-2026-84003. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
