Description
vantage6 is an open-source infrastructure for privacy preserving analysis. In version 5.0.2 and earlier, the algorithm-store edit permission lacks an ownership check, allowing one algorithm developer to alter another developer's algorithm while it is pending or under review. The attacker can change metadata including the algorithm image or image tag, causing reviewers and nodes to trust a different image from the one originally submitted for approval. No fixed version is available as of this review.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for vantage6, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Remediation status
No patched version of vantage6 has shipped for CVE-2026-73652 yet. Where your build allows, override or pin the dependency away from the vulnerable range, and apply any maintainer-recommended mitigation.
Mitigate without a patch
Put an independent control in front of the weakness: restrict the affected endpoint or interface to trusted networks, require an additional authentication factor or proxy-level check, and invalidate existing sessions and credentials in case the flaw has already been used.
