EUVD-2026-74185Severity by source
AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Description explicitly states low-privileged local users can exploit the unauthenticated loopback panel, so PR:L not PR:H; all C/I/A:H impacts confirmed by credential exposure and config-write capability.
Primary rating from Vendor (okta).

Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
The administrative panel of the Auth0 AD/LDAP Connector (versions 6.5.0 and earlier) listens on the local loopback interface without requiring authentication. This allows a local, low-privileged user or process on the host system to access the panel's management endpoints without credentials. Through these endpoints, a local user can read configuration details, including plaintext Active Directory service account credentials, and modify connector settings.
AnalysisAI
Auth0 AD/LDAP Connector versions 6.5.0 and earlier expose an administrative management panel on the local loopback interface with no authentication requirement, allowing any low-privileged local user or co-resident process to read plaintext Active Directory service account credentials and modify connector configuration without presenting credentials. The impact extends beyond the connector itself: exposed AD service account passwords enable lateral movement and privilege escalation within the broader Active Directory environment. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires an existing local presence on the host running Auth0 AD/LDAP Connector - specifically, the ability to make TCP connections to the loopback interface, which is available to any local user account or process by default on all major operating systems. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The provided CVSS vector (AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H, score 6.7) assigns PR:H (high privileges), which directly contradicts the CVE description's explicit statement that 'a local, low-privileged user or process' is sufficient to exploit the vulnerability. … 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 | The primary remediation is to upgrade Auth0 AD/LDAP Connector to the version identified as fixed in the Okta advisory at https://trust.okta.com/security-advisories/unauthenticated-localhost-admin-panel-in-auth0-ad-ldap-connector-cve-2026-85981; the exact patched version number is not stated in the available reference data and must be confirmed there. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
