bouncycastle: BC-JAVA: LDAP injection vulnerability in LDAPStoreHelper.java

A flaw was found in Legion of the Bouncy Castle Inc. BC-JAVA bcprov. The LDAPStoreHelper implementation fails to properly neutralize special elements in user-supplied input before incorporating them into LDAP queries. This allows a remote attacker to execute an LDAP injection attack by supplying...

bouncycastle: BC-JAVA: private key leakage via non-constant time comparisons

A flaw was found in Legion of the Bouncy Castle Inc. BC-JAVA core. A covert timing channel vulnerability, caused by non-constant time comparisons, risks the leakage of private keys in the FrodoKEM implementation. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can potentially exploit this timing discrepancy ...

bouncycastle: BC-JAVA: unbounded PGP AEAD chunk size leads to pre-auth resource exhaustion

A flaw was found in Legion of the Bouncy Castle Inc. BC-JAVA bcpg. A specially crafted PGP AEAD Authenticated Encryption with Associated Data message with an unbounded chunk size can lead to an excessive consumption of memory. This issue allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to cause memory...

bouncycastle: BC-JAVA: PKIX draft CompositeVerifier accepts empty signature sequence as valid

A flaw was found in Legion of the Bouncy Castle Inc. BC-JAVA bcpkix. The PKIX draft CompositeVerifier implementation improperly accepts an empty signature sequence as a valid cryptographic signature. This issue allows a remote attacker to bypass signature verification mechanisms, potentially...

bouncycastle: BC-JAVA: GOSTCTR implementation unable to process more than 255 blocks correctly

A flaw was found in Legion of the Bouncy Castle Inc. BC-JAVA bcprov. The GOSTCTR implementation is unable to securely process more than 255 blocks of data due to keystream reuse. This issue allows an attacker to break the fundamental confidentiality of any data protected by the G3413CTRBlockCiphe...

Infinite loop

Overview Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Infinite loop due to the lack of a limit in the retry mechanism for CPU entropy instructions in the native entropy source. An attacker can cause the application to hang indefinitely by triggering persistent failures in the on-chip entro...

Missing Release of Resource after Effective Lifetime

Overview Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Missing Release of Resource after Effective Lifetime due to reliance on the finalize process for zeroizing sensitive key material. An attacker can potentially access sensitive cryptographic keys by exploiting delays in garbage collectio...

UBUNTU-CVE-2026-8798

In Bouncy Castle for Java FIPS BC-FJA before bc-fips 2.1.3, the native entropy source used on Intel platforms retried the CPU entropy instructions without any bound. RDSEED and RDRAND report failure through their carry flag, and the JNI seeding routine spun re-issuing the instruction for as long ...

CVE-2026-8798 Native entropy source retries the CPU entropy instructions without limit

RDSEED and RDRAND report failure through their carry flag, and the JNI seeding routine spun re-issuing the instruction for as long ...

Inefficient Algorithmic Complexity

Overview Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Inefficient Algorithmic Complexity in the IETFUtils.valueToString method, reached through X500Name.toString, equals, and hashCode via AbstractX500NameStyle, which escapes each special character with vBuf.insertindex, "\" on the same...

Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling

Overview Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling in the engineLoad method of BcFKSKeyStoreSpi, which reads HMAC PBKDF2 or scrypt cost parameters from a keystore's integrity structures and runs key derivation before MAC verification,...

Memory Allocation with Excessive Size Value

Overview Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Memory Allocation with Excessive Size Value in the toByteArray method of DefiniteLengthInputStream, which allocates new byteintremaining up front from the declared ASN.1 definite-length value before reading any content. An attacker can...

Uncontrolled Recursion

Overview Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Uncontrolled Recursion in the force method of LazyEncodedSequence, which parses the deferred SEQUENCE with a fresh ASN1InputStream whose nesting-depth counter is reset rather than inherited from the parent parse, and never calls...
