CVE-2026-90817

NVD: An unauthenticated Remote Code Execution vulnerability was found in the survey passthrough routing and Data Import processing logic, in which a malicious user could potentially exploit it by manipulating HTTP requests to access an unintended controller route... NVD: If successfully exploited, this could allow the attacker to remotely execute arbitrary code on the REDCap server. NVD: The attacker does not have to be authenticated in order to exploit this, but exploitation requires knowledge of a valid public survey hash.
