CVE-2026-53647 — FOSSBilling vulnerable to unauthenticated API key configuration disclosure via guest Serviceapikey get_info endpoint

FOSSBilling is a free, open-source billing and client management system. In versions 0.5.3 through 0.7.2, the Guest `serviceapikey/get_info` API endpoint is accessible without authentication. Any caller with a valid API key can retrieve all custom configuration parameters (`custom_*` fields) stored in the key's database record. These custom fields are populated by billing administrators and can contain business-sensitive data such as pricing tiers, feature flags, rate limits, expiry overrides, or access scope data. Version 0.8.0 patches the issue. Some workarounds are available. Administrators can avoid storing sensitive data in `custom_*` API key configuration fields, monitor API logs for suspicious calls to `/api/guest/serviceapikey/get_info`, and/or disable the Serviceapikey module if not in active use.

Low

Who exploits it and how urgent it is

A 0–100 score combining confirmed exploitation, ransomware and APT use, public exploits, EPSS and severity.

No exploitation signal in the sources consulted so far.

How the score was calculated

Technical severity (medium)+3

The score orders the patch queue; it does not replace your asset context (internet exposure, criticality, compensating controls).

Triage

Is it exploited, how likely is exploitation, what does it touch, and how severe do the sources call it.

Exploitation

Not confirmed

Not in CISA KEV — an absence of record, not proof it is unexploited.

Remediation

Fixes and mitigations documented by the sources — linked to the original advisory.

No fix documented by the sources we poll. That does not mean none exists: check the vendor advisory.

First 24 hours

Ordered from the record’s own fields — exposure first, because you cannot patch what you have not found. A rule-generated starting point.

Identify exposed assets running the affected vendor/product/version combinations (FOSSBilling FOSSBilling).
The attack is network-based and needs no privileges: restrict exposure (ACLs, VPN, WAF) until patched.
No fix documented in the sources: reduce exposure and monitor the vendor advisory.
Search available logs for exploit probes matching the vulnerability class (info disclosure), errors and authentication anomalies.
