CVE-2026-115547

Critical Code Injection Flaw in Okta Access Gateway Allows Authenticated Command Execution

Okta disclosed CVE-2026-115547, a critical code injection vulnerability in the administrative console of Okta Access Gateway. An authenticated administrator can execute arbitrary commands on the underlying system using the privileges of the gateway service account. The flaw received a CVSS 3.1 score of 9.1 and stems from insufficient input validation when processing configuration values in a specific format. Affected appliances running versions prior to 2026.10.2 must be updated, as no workaround is provided. The same disclosure day also included CVE-2026-115546 for authentication source verification and two PHP execution issues (CVE-2026-109618, CVE-2026-109619) previously seen in Palo Alto PAN-OS. Exploitation requires administrative console access and no in-the-wild attacks have been reported.
