CVE-2026-81687

openssl_encrypt versions before 1.4.9 are vulnerable to a denial-of-service condition caused by the absence of a time ceiling on key derivation function (KDF) iteration counts embedded in file metadata. An attacker can craft a file with an extremely high iteration count, forcing the application t...

CVE-2026-81687 openssl_encrypt before 1.4.9 Denial of Service via KDF

opensslencrypt versions before 1.4.9 fail to enforce a time ceiling on key derivation function iteration counts specified in file metadata. Attackers can craft files with extremely high KDF iteration counts to consume CPU resources for unbounded periods before password verification occurs...

PT-2026-82588

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions openssl encrypt versions prior to 1.4.9 Description The software fails to enforce a time ceiling on key derivation function KDF iteration counts specified in file metadata. A KDF is a cryptographic algorithm that derives one or more secret key...

PT-2026-82600

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions openssl encrypt versions prior to 1.4.9 Description Insufficient validation of key derivation function KDF costs in crafted files allows attackers to trigger unbounded memory and CPU exhaustion during pre-authentication processing. By supplyin...

PT-2026-82616

Uncontrolled Resource Consumption

Bouncy Castle is vulnerable to Uncontrolled Resource Consumption. The vulnerability is due to insufficient bounds on PKCS12 MAC and bag-decryption KDF iteration counts, which allows an attacker to supply excessive iteration values and cause high computational resource consumption, resulting in...

MAC Forgery Vulnerability

Bouncy Castle for Java is vulnerable to a MAC forgery vulnerability. The vulnerability is due to improper handling of the KDF key split based on message length, which allows an attacker to forge the MAC and potentially modify or authenticate manipulated ciphertext without detection...
