CVE-2026-87670

MEDIUM 5.1

Published 2026-10-08 · Last modified 2026-10-08

An authorization logic vulnerability exists in the Brocade Fabric OS versions before 10.0.1 REST API gateway. The internal gate guarding restricted management endpoints relies exclusively on client-controlled HTTP headers. An authenticated user with any valid REST session can spoof these headers to gain unauthorized access to internal management endpoints. This allows low-privilege users to view sensitive chassis metadata, hardware memory patrolling state, and firmware integrity audit logs.
