CVE-2026-10056
Raw vector
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:HSummary
CVE-2026-10056 is a high-severity Permissive Cross-domain Security Policy with Untrusted Domains (CWE-942) vulnerability. Its CVSS base score is 7.5 (High).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Drive-by Compromise (T1189); ranked at the 15th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to AC-4 (Information Flow Enforcement) and SC-7 (Boundary Protection) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

user and perform Administrator Account Takeover via a malicious cross-origin web page visited by the victim. The High security mode is not affected.Workaround: For existing installations running in Standard security mode, set Access-Control-Allow-Credentials to false via the REST API: PATCH /rest/v2/system/settings with body {"supportedOrigins": "null"}. Alternatively, select High security level during initial setup. Solution: Update to Nx Witness VMS version 6.1.2 or later, in which Access-Control-Allow-Credentials is set to false in the default Standard security configuration.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Information flow enforcement requires approved authorizations and would reject policies permitting untrusted domains.
Boundary protection at external interfaces stops unauthorized cross-domain communication allowed by permissive policies.
Mitigating Controls (NIST CSF 2.0) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Hardened configuration baselines and reviews directly prevent permissive CSP or cross-domain policies.
Secure SDLC activities include review and testing of web security policies to avoid untrusted domains.
Vulnerability identification processes can surface permissive policy misconfigurations.

Security testing can detect overly permissive cross-domain policies but does not prevent their initial introduction.
Network security policies can restrict cross-domain communication but do not specifically mandate strict CSP or cross-domain policy configuration.
Security of network services includes defining allowed endpoints, which can limit untrusted domains but does not directly address web-client policy files.
Web filtering can block untrusted domains at the network level, partially mitigating permissive cross-domain policies.
Application security requirements should specify secure CSP and cross-domain policy settings, directly addressing the weakness.
Secure architecture principles include defining trust boundaries, which can reduce permissive cross-domain allowances.
