CVE-2026-49258

Nebula Mesh: Web UI lacks ownership checks, enabling cross-operator access to hosts and networks (read, block, delete)

Published Jul 28, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 8.8 High EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
Nebula Mesh is a self-hosted control plane for the Slack Nebula mesh VPN. In versions 0.3.5 and below, the web UI (/ui/*) does not apply the per-operator CA scoping employed by the JSON API. This was partially addressed by GHSA-598g-h2vc-h5vg, but the changes were not implemented in the web read/mutation surface. Any authenticated non-admin operator (for example, one created via self-registration or OIDC) can access resources belonging to other operators. The host create/edit/mobile-bundle/network-create paths and all CA-management routes were already correctly scoped. A malicious operator could block or delete any other operator's host, or read any operator's hosts and networks. This issue has been fixed in version 0.3.6.
