{"id":"DEBIAN-CVE-2026-114615","details":"Authlib is a Python library which builds OAuth and OpenID Connect servers. From 1.3.1 until 1.9.0, OctKey.import_key() checks asymmetric-key markers only at byte zero while Authlib's PEM loaders accept leading whitespace, comments, or a byte-order mark. In deployments that use the documented mixed algorithm registry and already configure verification with PEM or certificate bytes containing such a prefix, an unauthenticated attacker who knows those same public-key bytes can use them as an HMAC secret and forge HS256 tokens with arbitrary identity or authorization claims. This is a bypass of the remediation for CVE-2024-37568. The module-level jwt object reaches OctKey.import_key() in authlib/jose/rfc7518/oct_key.py, where POSSIBLE_UNSAFE_KEYS fails to identify prefixed asymmetric key material. This issue is fixed in version 1.9.0.","modified":"2026-10-24T09:47:36.395476608Z","published":"2026-10-22T22:18:04.257Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-114615"],"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2026-114615"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"python-authlib","ecosystem":"Debian:12","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/python-authlib?arch=source&distro=bookworm"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["1.2.0-1","1.2.0-1+deb12u1","1.2.0-1+deb12u2","1.2.1-1","1.3.0-1","1.3.0-2","1.3.0-3","1.3.1-1","1.3.2-1","1.3.2-2","1.4.0-1","1.4.1-1","1.5.0-1","1.5.1-1","1.5.2-1","1.6.0-1","1.6.1-1","1.6.3-1","1.6.4-1","1.6.5-1","1.6.6-1","1.6.7-1","1.6.8-1","1.6.9-1","1.7.0-1","1.7.2-1","1.7.2-2"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-114615.json"}},{"package":{"name":"python-authlib","ecosystem":"Debian:13","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/python-authlib?arch=source&distro=trixie"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["1.6.0-1","1.6.0-1+deb13u1","1.6.1-1","1.6.3-1","1.6.4-1","1.6.5-1","1.6.6-1","1.6.7-1","1.6.8-1","1.6.9-1","1.7.0-1","1.7.2-1","1.7.2-2"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-114615.json"}},{"package":{"name":"python-authlib","ecosystem":"Debian:14","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/python-authlib?arch=source&distro=forky"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["1.6.0-1","1.6.1-1","1.6.3-1","1.6.4-1","1.6.5-1","1.6.6-1","1.6.7-1","1.6.8-1","1.6.9-1","1.7.0-1","1.7.2-1","1.7.2-2"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-114615.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N"}]}
