# Edito CMS: forged JWT refresh tokens let attackers impersonate any user

Link for people: https://infrastack.ai/live/CVE-2026-59074 (this .md is for agents)

Edito CMS does not check the signature on JWTs submitted to its refresh logic. A logged-in low-privilege user can forge a token for any existing account, including administrators, and receive a valid session token.

_Summary, check and fix written by a model from the sources; labelled as such._

## How to check

- Compare the installed Edito CMS version with `5.10.2607`; versions below it are affected.
- Check whether the installation is on the 5.8 line, which the sources say also needed a hotfix.

## Fix

- Edito CMS: upgrade to `5.10.2607`.
- Edito CMS 5.8 line: apply the hotfix released for that line (the sources do not give its version).

## Timeline

- 2026-11-13T08:44:24+00:00 nvd https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-59074

## From the sources

Edito CMS is vulnerable to improper cryptographic signature verification in the JWT refresh logic. An authenticated low-privilege user can submit self-crafted​ ​JWT​ containing​ ​an existing user​ ​identifier and, due to the lack of signature validation,​​  obtain​ ​a ​​valid,​​ fully-signed​​ session ​​token​​ for​​ any ​​account ​​in​ ​the​ ​system. This allows the attacker to impersonate any user, including administrators.
This issue was fixed in version 5.10.2607.  Hotfixes for older versions (5.8) have also been released.
