EchelonGraph scoreMEDIUM confidence

This medium-severity CVE scores 6.1 under NVD CVSS v3. EPSS exploit probability: 0.3%, top 79% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).

OpenBao is an open source identity-based secrets management system. Prior to version 2.5.2, OpenBao installations that have an OIDC/JWT authentication method enabled and a role with callback_mode=direct configured are vulnerable to XSS via the error_description parameter on the page for a failed authentication. This allows an attacker access to the token used in the Web UI by a victim. The error_description parameter has been replaced with a static error message in v2.5.2. The vulnerability can be mitigated by removing any roles with callback_mode set to direct.
