PAYARA SERVER 7 · CVE-2026-110003 · Runtime
FIX → 7.6.0 · 7.2026.11 · 6.44.0 · 5.93.0 +1 ✓ verified
The administration REST interface of Azul Payara trusts a supplied X-GlassFish-authToken header, which skips the remote-access check and then falls through to password login. On default domains with an empty admin password, a remote attacker with no credentials can run arbitrary administrative commands and fully compromise the server.

It reads this page and tells you if your code or app is affected.
Any Azul Payara Server (Enterprise or Community) on the listed 4.x to 7.x branches whose administration REST interface (admin port, default 4848) can be reached over the network. Per the vendor's CNA record, the bypass turns into full unauthenticated command execution on default domains with an empty administrative password. Skip if the admin interface is only reachable from localhost or trusted networks and the admin password is set, but still upgrade.

A vulnerability in the administration REST interface of Azul Payara allows a remote, unauthenticated attacker to bypass secure-admin remote-access restrictions by supplying an arbitrary value in the X-GlassFish-authToken HTTP header. The header's presence waives the remote-rejection check before the token is validated, and an invalid token falls through to password-based authentication, which succeeds without credentials on default domains configured with an empty administrative password. Successful exploitation grants execution of arbitrary administrative commands, equivalent to complete compromise of the server.
