From 2.4.0 until 2.5.1, the POST /users/totp/disable and POST /users/totp/backup-codes endpoints accept the account password as the sole reauthentication factor after a 2.4.0 refactor regressed the two-factor check introduced for CVE-2026-45749. In src/backend/database/routes/user-totp-routes.ts, verifyTotpReauth returns success when bcrypt.compare validates the password, while each endpoint chooses password or totp_code as an interchangeable credential. An attacker who has a victim's authenticated session and knows the password can disable TOTP or regenerate and invalidate backup codes without an authenticator or valid second factor, weakening the account to single-factor authentication. This issue is fixed in version 2.5.1.","categories":["Unclassified"],"product":"Termix","vendor":"Termix-SSH","ecosystem":null,"affected_ranges":[{"source":"CVE List","source_url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-79763","source_modified_at":"2026-09-24T17:09:04.634Z","fetched_at":"2026-10-23T18:52:38.922436Z","product":"Termix","vendor":"Termix-SSH","versions":[{"version":">= 2.4.0, < 2.5.1","status":"affected"}],"defaultStatus":null}],"fixed_versions":[],"cvss":5.3,"severity":"Medium","kev":{"listed":false},"epss":{"probability":0.00315,"percentile":0.23169,"score_date":"2026-10-23"},"published_at":"2026-09-24T16:06:16.816Z","modified_at":"2026-09-24T17:09:04.634Z","provenance":[{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-79763","fetched_at":"2026-10-23T18:52:38.922436Z","source_modified_at":"2026-09-24T17:09:04.634Z"},{"source":"EPSS","url":"https://api.first.org/data/v1/epss?cve=CVE-2026-79763","fetched_at":"2026-10-23T18:42:43.628194Z","source_modified_at":"2026-10-23"}],"sources":["CVE List","EPSS"],"references":[{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://github.com/Termix-SSH/Termix/security/advisories/GHSA-x9h9-f7jc-8jwj","tags":["exploit"]},{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://github.com/Termix-SSH/Termix/pull/1067","tags":["x_refsource_MISC"]},{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://github.com/Termix-SSH/Termix/commit/22124e1bc49c8cedad57b31de9c51ad39f3d4432","tags":["x_refsource_MISC"]},{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://github.com/Termix-SSH/Termix/commit/ddbdd5c437c2296607dfaa4265d6f63fbc1ca92e","tags":["x_refsource_MISC"]},{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://github.com/Termix-SSH/Termix/releases/tag/release-2.5.1-tag","tags":["x_refsource_MISC"]}],"locations":[],"motoko_assessment":{"status":"requires_architecture_review","automatic_remediation":false},"cve_state":"PUBLISHED","cvss_source":"CVE List","ssvc":{"exploitation":"none","automatable":"no","technical_impact":"partial","assessed_at":"2026-09-24T17:08:38.740425Z"},"classification":{"method":"product-first software-layer rules","rules_version":"2.1","matched_on":null,"confidence":"unknown","reviewed":false},"change_timestamp":"2026-09-24T17:09:04.634Z","content_hash":"ca12e2d8a0b7aa1723df654439eba495968a062dc39ec5f66991d3b5c3928d39"}}
