CVE-2026-34986

Ein entfernter, anonymer Angreifer kann eine Schwachstelle in Red Hat Enterprise Linux ausnutzen, um einen Denial of Service Angriff durchzuführen.

Ein Angreifer kann mehrere Schwachstellen in Splunk Splunk Enterprise ausnutzen, um beliebigen Code auszuführen, Berechtigungen zu erweitern, Sicherheitsmaßnahmen zu umgehen, SQL-Injection-, serverseitige Request-Forgery- und Cross-Site-Scripting-Angriffe durchzuführen, sensible Informationen offenzulegen oder zu manipulieren, Denial-of-Service-Zustände auszulösen oder andere, nicht näher spezifizierte Angriffe durchzuführen.

### Impact Decrypting a JSON Web Encryption (JWE) object will panic if the `alg` field indicates a key wrapping algorithm ([one ending in `KW`](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/go-jose/go-jose/v4#pkg-constants), with the exception of `A128GCMKW`, `A192GCMKW`, and `A256GCMKW`) and the `encrypted_key` field is empty. The panic happens when `cipher.KeyUnwrap()` in `key_wrap.go` attempts to allocate a slice with a zero or negative length based on the length of the `encrypted_key`. This code path is reachable from `ParseEncrypted()` / `ParseEncryptedJSON()` / `ParseEncryptedCompact()` followed by `Decrypt()` on the resulting object. Note that the parse functions take a list of accepted key algorithms. If the accepted key algorithms do not include any key wrapping algorithms, parsing will fail and the application will be unaffected. This panic is also reachable by calling `cipher.KeyUnwrap()` directly with any `ciphertext` parameter less than 16 bytes long, but calling this function directly is less common. Panics can lead to denial of service. ### Fixed In 4.1.4 and v3.0.5 ### Workarounds If the list of `keyAlgorithms` passed to `ParseEncrypted()` / `ParseEncryptedJSON()` / `ParseEncryptedCompact()` does not include key wrapping algorithms (those ending in `KW`), your application is unaffected. If your application uses key wrapping, you can prevalidate to the JWE objects to ensure the `encrypted_key` field is nonempty. If your application accepts JWE Compact Serialization, apply that validation to the corresponding field of that serialization (the data between the first and second `.`). ### Thanks Thanks to Datadog's Security team for finding this issue.

The go-jose package is subject to a panic when decrypting certain JSON Web Encryption (JWE) tokens. This occurs when an attacker can provide a maliciously crafted JWE token that triggers an unhandled exception during the decryption process, leading to a denial-of-service.
