CVE-2026-25235
Prior to version 1.33.0, predictable verification hashes may allow attackers to guess verification tokens and potentially verify election account requests without authorization.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.26%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
