CVE-2026-12379 Qt CVE debrief
CVE-2026-12379 is an Open Redirect vulnerability in the OAuth/OIDC authentication implementation of the Axivion Dashboard. The login flow did not properly restrict the post-authentication redirect to the application's own origin, allowing a user who follows a crafted login link to be sent to an untrusted external site after authenticating against the genuine Dashboard. This vulnerability can be abused for phishing, for example credential or second-factor theft via a convincing look-alike page. The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 6.8 and a severity of MEDIUM.

Who should care
Users of Axivion Dashboard and administrators of systems that use Axivion Dashboard for authentication should be aware of this vulnerability and take steps to mitigate it. This includes reviewing system logs for suspicious activity, educating users on safe login practices, and implementing additional security measures to protect against phishing attacks.
Technical summary
The Open Redirect vulnerability (CWE-601) exists in the OAuth/OIDC authentication implementation of the Axivion Dashboard. The login flow did not properly restrict the post-authentication redirect to the application's own origin, so a user who follows a crafted login link can be sent to an untrusted external site after authenticating against the genuine Dashboard. This can be abused for phishing, for example credential or second-factor theft via a convincing look-alike page. Exploitation requires the victim to follow the attacker-supplied link and complete the authentication flow.
Defensive priority
Medium priority due to the potential for phishing attacks.
Recommended defensive actions
- Verify and restrict redirects in Axivion Dashboard OAuth/OIDC authentication implementation
- Implement proper input validation and sanitization
- Monitor for suspicious login activity
- Educate users on phishing attacks and safe login practices
- Review compensating controls for exposed systems while remediation is scheduled and verified
- Check relevant monitoring, detection, and logs for exposed assets that need extra review
- Track exceptions, retest remediated assets, and close the item only after evidence is documented
