A critical JWT-signature verification flaw in WSO2 API Manager and related products is seeing active exploitation attempts, according to watchTowr. The flaw, CVE-2026-5430, can allow tokens signed with unsupported algorithms to bypass authentication and potentially take over administrative accounts. WatchTowr said its honeypots captured tokens with embedded administrator privileges on September 13. WSO2 has released fixes for affected products and support-subscription update levels.
