hoppscotch is an open source API development ecosystem. The fix for CVE-2026-28215 in version 2026.2.0 addresses the unauthenticated POST /v1/onboarding/config endpoint by checking onboardingCompleted and canReRunOnboarding before allowing config overwrites. However, GET /v1/onboarding/config still leaks all infrastructure secrets in plaintext to unauthenticated users when the ONBOARDING_RECOVERY_TOKEN stored in the database is an empty string. This vulnerability is fixed in 2026.4.0.
No affected version ranges are stored yet. Use the vendor advisory before you decide this record does not apply.
