CVE-2026-1603 is a high-severity authentication bypass vulnerability in Ivanti Endpoint Manager (EPM) affecting versions before 2024 SU5, including EPM 2024 SU4 SR1 and earlier. The flaw is described as an authentication bypass using an alternate path or channel and, per the provided technical context, exists within the AuthHelper class due to use of an alternative, weak authentication path. It is remotely exploitable over the network, requires no authentication, no user interaction, and low attack complexity. Successful exploitation allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to bypass normal authentication controls and leak specific stored credential data from the affected EPM instance. The provided CVSS v3.1 vector is AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:N.
