CVE-2026-63089
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 · uneditedWireGuard Easy through 15.3.0, fixed in commit 66b292b, contains a cryptographically weak one-time link token generation vulnerability that allows unauthenticated network attackers to recover WireGuard peer credentials by brute-forcing a keyspace of at most 1000 candidate tokens per client ID, as the token is computed using CRC32 over a random value constrained to 0-999. Attackers can enumerate candidate tokens against the unauthenticated /cnf/:oneTimeLink route, which lacks rate limiting and does not validate token expiration, to obtain a peer's PrivateKey and PresharedKey and impersonate that peer on the VPN network.

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 · scopedAny release newer than 15.3.0 containing commit 66b292b, or apply the commit directly
- Upgrade WireGuard Easy to a version newer than 15.3.0 that includes the security fix from commit 66b292b
- If a newer release is not available, manually apply the fix from commit 66b292b which addresses the weak CRC32-based token generation
- Implement rate limiting on the /cnf/:oneTimeLink endpoint to prevent brute-force attacks
- After upgrading, verify that peer PrivateKey and PresharedKey can no longer be obtained through token brute-forcing

The advisory tells you what broke. It rarely tells you what actually worked. If you’ve dealt with this one, that detail is what the next engineer is searching for.
