New API is a large language mode (LLM) gateway and artificial intelligence (AI) asset management system. Prior to 1.0.0-rc.7, the admin user list and user lookup APIs, including GET /api/user/, return User.AccessToken as access_token because User model objects are serialized after queries use Omit("password"), allowing an authenticated administrator to obtain the root user's bearer token and access root-only system configuration APIs. This issue is fixed in version 1.0.0-rc.7.
CVE-2026-64859
This critical-severity CVE scores 9.1 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.5%, top 61% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).
- High severity, but no confirmed exploitation yet
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.
