CVE-2026-104058Podgrab Missing Authentication on WebSocket /ws Endpoint

Updated under an hour ago ()

Does this affect you?

It affects akhilrex podgrab. Add what you run to find out whether that includes you.

No exploitation reported and no EPSS estimate yet.

Podgrab contains a missing authentication vulnerability in which the /ws WebSocket route is registered on the root gin engine instead of the BasicAuth-protected router group, allowing unauthenticated network clients to connect even when PASSWORD is configured. Attackers can join the allConnections set, capture PlayerExists broadcasts containing client-supplied player identifiers, and replay them in a RegisterPlayer message to hijack queue payloads intended for authenticated users, exposing episode IDs, titles, and server-side file paths while potentially disrupting legitimate playback.
