CVE-2026-23600 is a remote authentication bypass vulnerability affecting HPE AutoPass License Server (APLS). The flaw exists in the product's web service, which listens on TCP port 5814 by default, and is caused by incorrect authentication checks before access to functionality is granted. Because authentication is not required to trigger the flaw, a remote attacker can reach exposed affected instances over the network and access protected functions without valid credentials. Affected versions are APLS releases prior to 9.19.
