Executive Summary

CVE-2026-3563 is a medium-severity vulnerability in PowerShell Universal versions before 2026.1.4 caused by improper input validation in the apps and endpoints configuration.

An authenticated user who has permissions to create or modify Apps or Endpoints can exploit this flaw to override existing application or system URL routes.

Mitigation Strategies

The recommended immediate step to mitigate this vulnerability is to upgrade PowerShell Universal to version 2026.1.4 or later.

This update addresses the improper input validation issue that allows authenticated users to override existing application or system URL routes, preventing unintended request routing conflicts and denial of service.

Impact Analysis

This vulnerability can impact you by allowing an authenticated user with certain permissions to disrupt normal service operation.
