{"id":"CVE-2025-7043","url":"https://www.cyber-defence.io/tools/cve/CVE-2025-7043","generatedAt":"2026-10-28T03:58:53.884Z","title":"This allows a refresh token to be treated as a valid access token, enabling its use for consuming protected resources.","description":"The ForgeRock client fails to correctly validate refresh tokens. This allows a refresh token to be treated as a valid access token, enabling its use for consuming protected resources. This bypasses the intended security control that requires valid client credentials in addition to a refresh token to obtain a new access token.\n\nAn attacker who obtains a stolen or exposed refresh token can leverage this vulnerability to directly access protected resources. This is possible because the standard security flow requiring client credentials to exchange a refresh token for an access token is circumvented.","published":"2026-10-19T17:17:00.000Z","lastModified":"2026-10-19T21:06:29.000Z","status":"Awaiting Analysis","sourceIdentifier":"ed10eef1-636d-4fbe-9993-6890dfa878f8","cvss":{"version":"3.1","score":5.4,"severity":"MEDIUM","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N"},"cwe":["CWE-862"],"affected":[],"epss":{"score":0.00184,"percentile":0.07949,"date":"2026-10-27","history":[{"date":"2026-10-20","score":0.00184,"percentile":0.07573}]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"low","text":"Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.18%).
