NewCVE-2026-42202 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
Upgrade almirhodzic/nova-toggle-5 to version 1.3.0 or higher.
Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Authorization via the toggle endpoint. An attacker can modify boolean fields on any resource by sending requests to the endpoint with arbitrary attribute parameters, even if they do not have access to the Nova admin area, as long as they are authenticated on the configured guard. This is only exploitable if the application uses a shared authentication guard between frontend users and the Nova admin area.
Workaround
This vulnerability can be mitigated by restricting access to the /nova-vendor/nova-toggle/toggle/* routes via an additional middleware that enforces the viewNova gate.
