CVE-2026-85978Unauthenticated Remote Code Execution in Akana API Platform

Updated under an hour ago ()

Does this affect you?

It affects Perforce Akana. Add what you run to find out whether that includes you.

No exploitation reported and no EPSS estimate yet.

An unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability exists in the Policy Manager console of Akana API Platform. A path normalization discrepancy between the authentication filter and the servlet dispatcher allows a crafted request to bypass authentication and reach an endpoint that evaluates attacker-supplied script code without sandboxing, resulting in arbitrary code execution. Exploitation requires no authentication or user interaction.
