CVE-2024-48952
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedAn issue was discovered in Logpoint before 7.5.0. SOAR uses a static JWT secret key to generate tokens that allow access to SOAR API endpoints without authentication. This static key vulnerability enables attackers to create custom JWT secret keys for unauthorized access to these endpoints.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidenceLogpoint SOAR before version 7.5.0 uses a hardcoded static JWT secret key to sign authentication tokens. Attackers who discover this static secret can craft arbitrary JWT tokens to bypass authentication and access SOAR API endpoints without valid credentials.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify Logpoint SOAR installation versionUse the product's built-in version checking mechanism (such as the /api/system/info endpoint, the web UI's about page, or the command line tool 'lpctl version') to retrieve the currently installed Logpoint SOAR versionAffected if The installed version is lower than 7.5.0 (for example, 7.4.0, 7.3.0, etc.)
-
Verify JWT authentication is enabledConfirm that the SOAR instance has API access and JWT-based authentication is active by attempting to access the authentication endpoints or reviewing the system configuration for API/JWT settingsAffected if API endpoints are exposed and JWT authentication is in use (this is the default configuration)
-
Check for unexpected JWT tokens in logsReview SOAR authentication and API access logs for any anomalous JWT tokens, particularly those with unusual claims or from unexpected sources, using the log search functionality or examining access logsAffected if Logs contain JWT tokens that were not issued by your own authentication system or show authentication anomalies
You are affected if your Logpoint SOAR installation is version 7.5.0 or earlier, and the API interface with JWT authentication is enabled and accessible.
Generated from the published advisory. Verify against your own configuration.
Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scoped7.5.0
Upgrade Logpoint to version 7.5.0 or later which implements dynamic JWT secret key generation. If immediate upgrade is not possible, restrict network access to SOAR API endpoints and monitor for anomalous API access patterns.
Logpoint SOAR 7.5.0 or later
- 1. Back up the current Logpoint SOAR configuration and database according to Logpoint backup procedures.
- 2. Download the Logpoint SOAR 7.5.0 (or latest stable) upgrade package from the official Logpoint portal at docs.logpoint.com or servicedesk.logpoint.com.
- 3. Stop all SOAR services and ensure no active connections or running playbooks during the upgrade process.
- 4. Apply the upgrade package using Logpoint's documented upgrade procedure (refer to the official installation/upgrade guide for version 7.5.0).
- 5. After upgrade completion, verify that the SOAR version displays as 7.5.0 or later in the system information or about page.
- 6. Test API endpoint access to confirm JWT authentication is functioning with the new (non-static) secret key mechanism.
- 7. If any custom integrations or scripts rely on JWT token generation, update them to use the new authentication method as documented in the 7.5.0 release notes.
