    Advisory [CVE-2026-78384] CompressionUtils.inflate decompressed attacker-controlled DEFLATE data with no output-size cap

    CVE-2026-78384Source published Source updated

    CompressionUtils.inflate() decompressed attacker-controlled DEFLATE data with no output-size cap. A small (~KB) crafted payload could expand to gigabytes on the heap. Reachable via JWE decryption when zip=DEF (e.g. JoseSessionTokenProvider with RSA-OAEP key wrap) and via SAML redirect/POST binding token inflation — in both cases decompression happens before/independent of trust validation. Fix: Added a configurable maximum inflated-size cap (default 10 MiB, org.apache.cxf.compression-max-inflated-size system property) to CompressionUtils.inflate(); aborts with DataFormatException once exceeded. Users are recommended to upgrade to versions 4.2.4 or 4.1.9 or 3.6.13, which fix this issue.

    High [CVE-2026-78384] Denial of Service via uncontrolled data decompression

    CVE-2026-78384Source published Source updated

    A flaw was found in Apache CXF. A remote attacker can trigger a Denial of Service (DoS) by submitting specially crafted compressed data during token processing. Because the system decompresses incoming data without enforcing a maximum output size limit, a small payload can consume excessive heap memory. This unchecked expansion can exhaust system resources and crash the service. Red Hat severity: Important — CVSS 7.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H). Weakness: CWE-409. Affected Red Hat products: Red Hat build of Apache Camel 4 for Quarkus 3; Red Hat build of Apache Camel for Spring Boot 4; Red Hat Fuse 7; Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7; Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 8; Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform Expansion Pack; Red Hat…
