CWE-305
AllowedAuthentication Bypass by Primary Weakness
Abstraction: Base · Status: Draft
The authentication algorithm is sound, but the implemented mechanism can be bypassed as the result of a separate weakness that is primary to the authentication error.
304 vulnerabilities reference this CWE, most recent first.
GHSA-2MXQ-Q8P2-G2C8
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2023-10-21 09:30 – Updated: 2026-04-08 21:32The SALESmanago plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Log Injection in versions up to, and including, 3.2.4. This is due to the use of a weak authentication token for the /wp-json/salesmanago/v1/callbackApiV3 API endpoint which is simply a SHA1 hash of the site URL and client ID found in the page source of the website. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary content into the log files, and when combined with another vulnerability this could have significant consequences.

GHSA-2R3J-V23V-HX4J
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-10-09 18:30 – Updated: 2025-10-09 18:30An Authentication Bypass by Primary Weakness
in the FTP server of Juniper Networks Junos OS allows an unauthenticated, network-based attacker to get limited read-write access to files on the device. When the FTP server is enabled and a user named "ftp" or "anonymous" is configured, that user can login without providing the configured password and then has read-write access to their home directory.
This issue affects Junos OS:
- all versions before 22.4R3-S8,
- 23.2 versions before 23.2R2-S3,
- 23.4 versions before 23.4R2.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-08-27 06:31 – Updated: 2026-08-27 06:31A logic vulnerability (fail-open condition) has been identified within the Metasploit Framework's JSON-RPC web service interface. When an exception occurs during the database health check (db.check) and the environment variable MSF_WS_JSON_RPC_API_TOKEN is not explicitly set, the application resets the internal state flag msf.auth_initialized to false. The ApiToken Warden authentication strategy misinterprets this false value as an indicator that authentication is not initialized or required, thereby granting unauthenticated local access to the JSON-RPC request dispatcher.
