**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** Caldera versions prior to 2.6.5 **Description** The issue is related to the auth svc function in Caldera, which allows authentication bypass for REST API requests. This can be achieved by forging a "localhost" string in the HTTP Host header, potentially enabling a remote attacker to elevate their privileges. **Recommendations** For versions prior to 2.6.5, update to version 2.6.5 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the REST API to minimize the risk of exploitation.
