CVE-2026-35053 is a critical-severity Missing Authentication for Critical Function (CWE-306) vulnerability in Hackerbay Oneuptime. Its CVSS base score is 9.2 (Critical).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked at the 43th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to AC-14 (Permitted Actions Without Identification or Authentication) and IA-2 (Identification and Authentication (Organizational Users)) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.
CVE-2026-35053 is a critical vulnerability in OneUptime, an open-source monitoring and observability platform, affecting versions prior to 10.0.42. The issue lies in the Worker service's ManualAPI, which exposes workflow execution endpoints (GET /workflow/manual/run/:workflowId and POST /workflow/manual/run/:workflowId) without any authentication middleware. Classified under CWE-306 (Missing Authentication for Critical Function), it has a CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H), indicating high severity due to its potential for complete confidentiality, integrity, and availability impacts.
Any remote attacker who can obtain or guess a valid workflow ID can exploit these unauthenticated endpoints to trigger arbitrary workflow execution with attacker-controlled input data. Successful exploitation enables JavaScript code execution, abuse of notification mechanisms, and manipulation of data within the platform, potentially leading to full compromise depending on the workflows configured.
The vulnerability has been patched in OneUptime version 10.0.42. Mitigation details are available in the GitHub release notes at https://github.com/OneUptime/oneuptime/releases/tag/10.0.42 and the security advisory at https://github.com/OneUptime/oneuptime/security/advisories/GHSA-6c3w-7xg4-4cf7.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Directly mandates unique identification and authentication of users before access to functions requiring identity.
Extends the same authentication requirement to non-organizational users accessing critical functionality.
Requires authentication of services before they can invoke or expose critical functions.
Explicitly identifies and limits actions permitted without authentication, preventing critical functions from being exposed.
Access enforcement requires prior authentication before any authorization decision for critical functions.
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.
Directly requires authentication of users/services/hardware, which eliminates missing authentication for critical functions.
Managing identities and credentials is a prerequisite for authentication but does not itself enforce it on critical functions.
Defining and enforcing authorizations assumes prior authentication and therefore only partially mitigates the absence of authentication.
Protecting networks from unauthorized access can be undermined by missing authentication but does not address the root authentication gap.
Mitigating Controls (ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Annex A) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
The control explicitly calls for authentication before any critical function is reached, eliminating the possibility of bypassing authentication for high-value operations.
Mandating authentication requirements for critical functions at the requirements-gathering stage ensures that essential operations are not left unprotected by missing login or verification mechanisms.
Mandating authentication for network services and critical functions stops attackers from invoking sensitive operations without credentials, closing gaps where authentication is absent for important capabilities.
Security engineering principles insist on authentication and authorization for every critical function, eliminating entry points that lack any access control mechanism.
Requiring strong authentication and access-privilege enablement for remote connections ensures that critical functions cannot be invoked without proper verification, closing a gap that would otherwise allow unauthenticated use.
Mandatory use of access cards, biometrics, or two-factor authentication ensures that critical physical areas cannot be entered without proper authentication.
