CVE-2026-85387 — Concrete CMS before 9.5.4 re-authorized OAuth REST API requests from the bearer token…
Concrete CMS before 9.5.4 re-authorized OAuth REST API requests from the bearer token alone and did not re-check the state of the account the token had been issued to. The resource server's authorization validator confirmed only that a token existed, had not expired, and had not been explicitly revoked, and deactivating a user did not revoke that user's outstanding tokens. As a result, a deactivated user retained full access to /ccm/api/1.0/* for the remaining lifetime of any token already issued to them. The same gap applied to accounts that had been deleted or locked pending a forced password reset. The Concrete CMS security team gave this vulnerability a CVSS v4.0 score of 2.0 with vector CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:H/AT:P/PR:L/UI:A/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N. Thanks Myq Larson for reporting.
Who exploits it and how urgent it is
A 0–100 score combining confirmed exploitation, ransomware and APT use, public exploits, EPSS and severity.
How the score was calculated
- Technical severity (high)+6
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.
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 (Concretecms Concrete Cms).
- No fix documented in the sources: reduce exposure and monitor the vendor advisory.
- Search available logs for exploit probes, errors and authentication anomalies.
Affected scope
Vendor, product and versions as the sources word them.

Attack characteristics
The CVSS vector, decoded. It describes the attack, not your exposure to it.
Every base score collected
Sources score independently and may disagree; each row says who scored it and under which version.
