- Apache WSS4J accepted attacker-controlled derived-key lengths and offsets without adequate bounds. This
could permit cryptographically weak keys or excessive CPU and memory consumption when processing crafted
WS-Security messages. The fixes enforce a minimum key length of 16 bytes, a maximum length of 512 bytes,
and a maximum offset of 4096 bytes. Users are recommended to upgrade to versions 4.0.2 or 3.0.6 or 2.4.4,
which fix this issue. (CVE-2026-85532)
