Preliminary research

CargoWise WebTracker — The Keys Were in the Cargo

Patrik Grobshäuser, Shubham Shah, Adam Kues and Dylan Pindur · Searchlight Cyber

AI-collected research leads through 3 November 2026, including a November–October–September missed-article review and a targeted multilingual search alongside earlier community-source sweeps. Unranked, incomplete, not community-vetted, and subject to change.

Follows hardcoded encryption keys into CargoWise auto-login tokens and a fallback identity. Handler endpoints bypass page-level session teardown, enabling contact enumeration and persistent sessions that expose shipment and document data. The writeup also discusses a known-machine-key ViewState route.
