{"identifier":"CVE-2026-111443","cve":{"id":"CVE-2026-111443","description":"Wheels 4.0.6 through 4.1.2 lets an unauthenticated client switch a request into a separate test application context, including in production, by supplying an X-Wheels-Test-Context header or WHEELS_TEST_CONTEXT cookie with any value, or including a test-runner path anywhere in the URL, even the query string. The alternate application uses the same configuration, environment, datasource and debug settings: this is not an authentication bypass or data/debug escalation. It can bypass maintenance mode enabled only at runtime, provide a second set of in-memory rate-limit counters, and trigger additional application-startup side effects and memory use. This is fixed in 4.2.0.","published":"2026-10-16T04:18:30.133000+00:00","modified":"2026-10-16T15:19:36.177000+00:00","status":"Deferred","score":6.5,"severity":"MEDIUM","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:L","cvss_version":"3.1","affected":[],"weaknesses":["CWE-348"],"references":[{"url":"https://github.com/wheels-dev/wheels/security/advisories/GHSA-xcj9-wm25-4cg4","source":"cve@mitre.org"}],"kev":null,"kev_checked":true,"metrics":{"cvssMetricV31":[{"source":"cve@mitre.org","type":"Secondary","cvssData":{"version":"3.1","vectorString":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:L","baseScore":6.5,"baseSeverity":"MEDIUM","attackVector":"NETWORK","attackComplexity":"LOW","privilegesRequired":"NONE","userInteraction":"NONE","scope":"UNCHANGED","confidentialityImpact":"NONE","integrityImpact":"LOW","availabilityImpact":"LOW"},"exploitabilityScore":3.9,"impactScore":2.5}],"ssvcV203":[{"source":"134c704f-9b21-4f2e-91b3-4a467353bcc0","ssvcData":{"timestamp":"2026-10-16T15:01:05.585807Z","id":"CVE-2026-111443","options":[{"exploitation":"none"},{"automatable":"yes"},{"technicalImpact":"partial"}],"role":"CISA Coordinator","version":"2.0.3"}}]},"configurations":[],"source":"nvd","retrieved_at":"2026-10-28T10:22:54.961595+00:00","exploited":false,"kev_stale":false,"products":[],"priority":{"label":"Assess exposure and vendor guidance","reasons":["No higher-priority signal is available in the current stored evidence."]},"epss":{"probability":0.0016,"percentile":0.05163,"date":"2026-10-29","stale":false},"version_assessment":null},"news":[],"campaigns":[],"domains":[{"domain":"github.com","source_url":"https://github.com/wheels-dev/wheels/security/advisories/GHSA-xcj9-wm25-4cg4","investigate_url":"https://investigate.aeglixmind.com/#github.com"}],"arsenal_url":"https://arsenal.aeglixmind.com/?cve=CVE-2026-111443","catalog_url":"https://cves.aeglixmind.com/cve/CVE-2026-111443","research_url":"https://investigate.aeglixmind.com/research/cve/CVE-2026-111443","coverage":{"news_candidates_checked":0,"campaign_candidates_checked":0,"bounded":false,"notice":"Exact CVE mentions in stored public excerpts and reviewed campaign content only.
