CVE-2026-71892

Bouncy Castle for Java versions before 1.86 contain a flaw where opt-in key-size validation on CMS key-transport recipients fails for messages using RFC 9709 content-encryption key derivation (id-alg-cek-hkdf-sha256 ). The root cause is an incorrect comparison between a byte array and an ASN1Obje...

EUVD-2026-91987

In Bouncy Castle for Java before 1.86, the raw JCA provider's legacy PBES1 PKCS5 scheme 1 and PKCS12 PBE families ran their password-based key derivation with an iteration count taken from untrusted input without bounding it, so a small input could dictate an arbitrary amount of work before...

CVE-2026-97873

The Bouncy Castle for Java library (before versions 1.86 and LTS 2.73.13 ) contains a vulnerability where the raw JCA provider's legacy PBES1 and PKCS#12 PBE families derive keys using an iteration count from untrusted input without bounding. An attacker could provide a small input to dictate an ...

CVE-2026-92826

The EWWW Image Optimizer plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) in all versions up to and including 8.7.7 . The root cause is insufficient input sanitization and output escaping within the REQUEST_URI Parameter Key . An unauthenticated attacker can inject arbit...

CVE-2026-18040: Observable Timing Discrepancy

In Bouncy Castle for Java before 1.86, HQC leaked secret-derived data through two side channels: its GF2^8 arithmetic used lookup tables indexed by field elements, making the cache line touched a function of the operand, and its fixed-weight support sampler left its duplicate scan as soon as a...

Quantum Machine Learning Protection of Military Quantum Key Distribution against Cryptographically Camouflaged Attacks

Quantum key distribution proves its protocol secure and says nothing about the hardware beneath it, so military and government operators fielding it for command-and-control keys monitor the channel for implementation attacks, and that monitoring has a blind spot. An adversary with a kleptographic...
