CVE-2026-108718 Rill Data CVE debrief
Rill 0.77.0 through 0.90.5 contains a missing authorization vulnerability in the admin OAuth server that issues authorization codes to dynamically registered clients without user consent. Attackers can register a client with the long_lived_access_token scope and lure a user to an authorization link, obtaining a non-expiring API token with the user's full permissions.

Who should care
Defenders responsible for Rill deployments, particularly those using versions 0.77.0 through 0.90.5, should assess exposure and prioritize remediation. This involves verifying and restricting dynamic client registration, implementing proper authorization checks for the OAuth server, and monitoring for suspicious authorization requests. Affected operators, platform administrators, vulnerability management teams, and security teams should review the supplied
Why it matters
Defenders should care about CVE-2026-108718 because it allows attackers to obtain non-expiring API tokens with full user permissions, potentially leading to unauthorized access and compromise of Rill instances. Rill deployments, particularly versions 0.77.0 through 0.90.5, should assess exposure and prioritize remediation.
- Potential unauthorized access to Rill instances
- Risk of non-expiring API token compromise
- Need for verification of dynamic client registration restrictions
- Importance of ensuring proper authorization checks
Technical summary
The Rill admin OAuth server issues authorization codes to dynamically registered clients without user consent, allowing attackers to register a client with the long_lived_access_token scope and obtain a non-expiring API token with the user's full permissions. This vulnerability affects Rill deployments using versions 0.77.0 through 0.90.5, and defenders should prioritize verifying and remediating this issue by restricting dynamic client registration and ensuring proper authorization checks are in place to prevent unauthorized access.
Defensive priority
Defenders should prioritize verifying and remediating this vulnerability in Rill deployments, focusing on restricting dynamic client registration and ensuring proper authorization checks.
Recommended defensive actions
- Verify Rill version and restrict dynamic client registration
- Implement proper authorization checks for OAuth server
- Monitor for suspicious authorization requests
- 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
- Confirm whether affected product deployments exist in managed environments and assign an owner for follow-up
