Frequently Asked Questions

What is CVE-2026-55432?

### Summary The `CreateSubAgent` RPC did not validate a requested app sharing level against the template's `MaxPortSharingLevel` before persisting workspace apps, letting a workspace owner exceed the administrator's configured maximum. > **Note:** Exploitation requires the ability to register sub-agent apps in a workspace the attacker controls. ### Impact A workspace owner with an agent token could register a sub-agent app as `PUBLIC` even when the template's `MaxPortSharingLevel` was `owner`, exposing the app to unauthenticated users via the wildcard app domain. This affected only deployments using Enterprise port-sharing policy and wildcard app hostnames and required an authenticated workspace owner with an agent token. ### Patches The fix clamps the sub-agent app sharing level to the template's `MaxPortSharingLevel`. The fix was backported to all supported release lines: | Release line | Patched version | |---|---| | 2.34 | [v2.34.2](https://github.com/coder/coder/releases/tag/v2.34.2) | | 2.33 | [v2.33.8](https://github.com/coder/coder/releases/tag/v2.33.8) | | 2.32 | [v2.32.7](https://github.com/coder/coder/releases/tag/v2.32.7) | | 2.29 (ESR) | [v2.29.17](https://github.com/coder/coder/releases/tag/v2.29.17) | ### Workarounds Disable wildcard app hostnames (`CODER_WILDCARD_ACCESS_URL`) to block subdomain-based app routing. ### Resources - Fix: #26061 ### Credits Coder would like to thank Anthropic's Security Team (ANT-2026-22452) for independently disclosing this issue!

Weaknesses (CWE)

CWE-862 Missing Authorization Primary

CWE-862 — Missing Authorization: The product does not perform an authorization check when an actor attempts to access a resource or perform an action.

[Architecture and Design] Divide the product into anonymous, normal, privileged, and administrative areas. Reduce the attack surface by carefully mapping roles with data and functionality. Use role-based access control (RBAC) [REF-229] to enforce the roles at the appropriate boundaries. Note that this approach may not protect against horizontal authorization, i.e., it will not protect a user from attacking others with the same role.
[Architecture and Design] Ensure that access control checks are performed related to the business logic. These checks may be different than the access control checks that are applied to more generic resources such as files, connections, processes, memory, and database records. For example, a database may restrict access for medical records to a specific database user, but each record might only be intended to be accessible to the patient and the patient's doctor [REF-7].
