CVE-2026-54363 is a critical vulnerability in Gladinet CentreStack before version 17.5 caused by use of a hardcoded cryptographic secret. The issue stems from a static SysNumber value used as entropy by the AccessTicket.Encrypt() and AccessTicket.Decrypt() mechanisms across installations, making token protection effectively predictable and shared between deployments. An unauthenticated attacker can exploit this weakness to forge arbitrary encrypted authentication tokens and construct valid authentication headers accepted by the application. By using forged tokens to access privileged administrative API functionality, including backup-token related operations, an attacker can obtain a domain administrator IdentityTicket and establish a full unauthenticated remote code execution chain.
