    Kimai Docker の脆弱性 CVE-2026-52824:デフォルト APP_SECRET の悪用によるアカウント乗っ取り https://iototsecnews.jp/2026/07/20/kimai-docker-vulnerability-exposes-default-app_secret-enabling-account-takeover/ 今回の問題は、公式 Docker イメージの初期設定に含まれていた、暗号鍵 APP_SECRET のデフォルト値が使用できてしまう仕組みに起因します。この鍵は、セキュリティ・データの検証に使われる大切なものですが、起動時に変更を強制する検証などがなかったことで、推測可能な鍵が運用されるリスクが生じていました。それにより、アカウント乗っ取りの脆弱性 CVE-2026-52824 (GHSA-jr9p-4h4j-6c58) が発生しています。ご利用のチームは、ご注意ください。 #CVE202652824 #Docker #Kimai #Vulnerability
