An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit this logic flaw to call the setup user-create endpoint and create a new administrator account when the camunda-admin group is empty but the system is fully administered, resulting in account takeover and potential process deployment or script execution as the engine's service user.\n\n## Remediation\n\nRefer to the linked advisories for vendor-supplied fixes and affected version ranges.","depth":"midnight","depthScore":57,"depthScoreParts":{"impact":44.6,"likelihood":0.1,"exploitation":12,"ransomware":0},"changes":[{"seq":217633,"id":"CVE-2026-77226","ts":1791394881817,"field":"exploit_available","old":"false","new":"true"}]}
