An issue was discovered in s-pms SPMS-Server through v1.0. The application contains a hardcoded default access token secret within its core configuration file, which is not overridden or removed in the production environment profile. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can locally forge valid administrative session tokens to completely bypass the authentication mechanism gaining full unauthorized access to protected backend APIs.
