2DescriptionCVE.org
The Okta Access Gateway does not sanitize dashboard label values before writing them into generated PHP configuration files. The generated file is automatically included during authentication requests, resulting in execution with the privileges of the web server process.
AnalysisAI
PHP code injection in Okta Access Gateway (all versions prior to 2026.9.1) allows an authenticated administrator to execute arbitrary code as the web server process by embedding malicious PHP payloads in dashboard application label values. The gateway writes these labels unsanitized into generated PHP configuration files, which are automatically included on every subsequent authentication request, triggering execution without further interaction. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires authentication as a high-privilege administrator of the Okta Access Gateway dashboard - specifically, an account with permission to create or modify dashboard application tile labels. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 score of 6.7 with vector AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H accurately reflects the constrained entry point: exploitation requires high-privilege (admin) access to the Okta Access Gateway administrative interface, and the attack vector is rated local, consistent with an on-prem appliance whose admin UI is typically accessible only from a restricted management network segment. … 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 Okta Access Gateway to version 2026.9.1 or later, which resolves the unsanitized label write. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
