GHSA-VRF4-MX87-P53W libp2p: PeerStore accepts attacker-signed PeerRecords for a victim peer ID and stores certified attacker addresses

Summary @libp2p/peer-store accepts a signed PeerRecord whose envelope is signed by one peer but whose payload claims a different peer ID. The vulnerable consumePeerRecord path verifies the envelope signature, but does not verify that the envelope signer is the same peer as the wrapped...

Improper Verification of Cryptographic Signature

Overview @libp2p/gossipsub is an A typescript implementation of gossipsub Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Verification of Cryptographic Signature in the validateToRawMessage process. An attacker can cause messages to be accepted and propagated as if authored by a vict...

libp2p: Gossipsub StrictSign accepts attacker-signed messages as a victim RSA peer ID

Summary @libp2p/gossipsub StrictSign validation does not bind a supplied message public key to the claimed from peer ID when from is an RSA-style peer ID that does not inline its public key. An attacker can set from to a victim RSA peer ID, sign the message with the attacker's own private key,...

CVE-2026-86038

libp2p is a JavaScript implementation of the libp2p networking stack. From 15.0.0 until 16.0.5, @libp2p/gossipsub uses the default StrictSign policy in packages/gossipsub/src/utils/buildRawMessage.ts, where validateToRawMessage verifies a signature with attacker-controlled msg.key but skips bindi...

CVE-2026-86039

CVE-2026-86039 affects @libp2p/peer-store (part of the JavaScript libp2p networking stack) from versions 8.0.0 through 12.0.24 . The root cause is in consumePeerRecord, which verifies a RecordEnvelope signature but fails to require that PeerRecord.peerId in the signed payload matches the signer p...
