title: CVE-2026-7399 - MeWare PDKS Authorization Bypass - Initial Access
id: scw-2026-04-30-ai-1
status: experimental
level: critical
description: |
  This rule detects an attempt to exploit CVE-2026-7399, an authorization bypass vulnerability in MeWare PDKS. The exploit involves sending a POST request to the '/PDKS/API/v1/users' endpoint with a specific query parameter ('action=get_user_details') that, when improperly handled, allows an attacker to bypass authorization checks and retrieve sensitive user information, potentially leading to privilege abuse. This is a critical initial access vector.
