Summary

CVE-2026-37504 is a medium-severity Use of HTTP Request With Sensitive Query String (CWE-598) vulnerability in V2Board V2Board. Its CVSS base score is 5.3 (Medium).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Steal Application Access Token (T1528); ranked at the 21th 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 SC-8 (Transmission Confidentiality and Integrity) and AC-17 (Remote Access) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Vulnerability Data

Sensitive server_token exposed via GET parameter in V2Board thru 1.7.4. In app/Http/Controllers/Server/UniProxyController.php, the server authentication token is accepted via GET parameter transmission. The token appears in URLs such as /api/v1/server/UniProxy/user?token=SECRET, causing it to be recorded in web server access logs,…

more

browser history, HTTP Referer headers, and proxy/CDN logs. An attacker who gains access to any log source can extract the token and impersonate a proxy server node, potentially intercepting all user traffic.

MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise TechniquesAI

T1528 Steal Application Access Token Credential Access
Adversaries can steal application access tokens as a means of acquiring credentials to access remote systems and resources.
T1552.001 Credentials In Files Credential Access
Adversaries may search local file systems and remote file shares for files containing insecurely stored credentials.
Why these techniques?

Token exposure in GET params/logs directly enables stealing application access tokens (T1528) and unsecured credentials from files (T1552.001).

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

prevent

Requires cryptographic protection of sensitive data (the server_token) in transit, directly precluding its placement in observable GET query strings.

prevent

Enforces information-flow policies that prohibit embedding authentication tokens in URLs where they can be captured by logs, referrers, or proxies.

AC-17 Remote Access partial match
prevent

Mandates secure remote-access mechanisms for management and proxy APIs, eliminating the use of GET-based token transmission.

Secure SDLC practices directly prevent embedding sensitive data in query strings as part of input-handling and data-flow design.

PR.DS-02 partial match
prevents

HTTPS encryption protects query strings in transit but does not address the root design flaw of placing sensitive data in URLs.

Network security controls can enforce HTTPS and block sensitive data in URLs.

prevents

Application security requirements should mandate avoiding sensitive data in query strings.

prevents

Secure architecture principles discourage exposing sensitive data in URLs.

prevents

Secure coding standards directly prohibit placing secrets in query parameters.
