Summary

Battelle V2I Hub 2.5.1 could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by the direct checking of the API key against a user-supplied value in PHP's GET global variable array using PHP's strcmp() function. By adding "[]" to the end of "key" in the URL when accessing API functions, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute API functions.

Exploit prediction

2.85% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days, higher than 86% of all scored CVEs (FIRST EPSS, 2026-11-08).
