Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-04-09 15:52 – Updated: 2026-04-10 18:49

Title

Apache OpenMeetings: Hardcoded Remember-Me Cookie Encryption Key and Salt

Summary

Use of Hard-coded Cryptographic Key vulnerability in Apache OpenMeetings. The remember-me cookie encryption key is set to default value in openmeetings.properties and not being auto-rotated. In case OM admin hasn't changed the default encryption key, an attacker who has stolen a cookie from a logged-in user can get full user credentials. This issue affects Apache OpenMeetings: from 6.1.0 before 9.0.0. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 9.0.0, which fixes the issue.

Severity

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-04-09 18:31 – Updated: 2026-04-10 21:34

Summary

Apache OpenMeetings Uses Hard-coded Cryptographic Key

Details

Use of Hard-coded Cryptographic Key vulnerability in Apache OpenMeetings.

The remember-me cookie encryption key is set to default value in openmeetings.properties and not being auto-rotated. In case OM admin hasn't changed the default encryption key, an attacker who has stolen a cookie from a logged-in user can get full user credentials.

This issue affects Apache OpenMeetings: from 6.1.0 before 9.0.0.

Users are recommended to upgrade to version 9.0.0, which fixes the issue.

How durations are calculated

Following the VTEM framework (Black Hat USA 2015), time to patch starts when the vendor or a coordinator was informed, total time to patch at discovery, and disclosure to patch at public disclosure; vendor response time runs from the report to its acknowledgement. Time to exploit and time unpatched start at the earliest discovery or report, falling back to public disclosure. Unpatched time ends at the first recorded patch, or the calculation time when no patch is recorded. Exploitation to patch shows the interval between those two events; a published proof of concept is a public exploit, not exploitation.

Each result shows its source dates. A negative interval means the end event came first; when date-only inputs leave the order open, the result says so. Date-only inputs are approximate. The earliest evidence wins: KEV report dates and sightings are labelled as such. Records describing another vulnerability are listed but never calculated from, and a PoC alone does not establish exploitation. Missing patch evidence does not prove that no patch exists. Filters below change the event list only.
