{"id":"UBUNTU-CVE-2026-107281","details":"The AsyncHttpClient (AHC) library allows Java applications to easily execute HTTP requests and asynchronously process HTTP responses. Prior to 3.0.13 and 2.16.1, the HTTP/1.1 connection-pool key excludes the authenticated principal for connection-oriented NTLM and Negotiate authentication. A pooled socket authenticated for one request can be reused by a request carrying another principal, and the server executes that later request as the first identity. Basic and Digest are not affected because they authenticate each request. This issue is fixed in versions 3.0.13 and 2.16.1.","modified":"2026-10-08T19:47:05.340952056Z","published":"2026-10-08T00:00:00Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-107281"],"references":[{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2026-107281"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-107281"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/AsyncHttpClient/async-http-client/security/advisories/GHSA-vvp4-63h8-v5pm"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/AsyncHttpClient/async-http-client/commit/73813babf51231ee79f7da4f07b777f19f48d34d"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/AsyncHttpClient/async-http-client/commit/73813babf51231ee79f7da4f07b777f19f48d34d"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/AsyncHttpClient/async-http-client/commit/83e552e64cabab2119addb6b47f7c6482997c94e"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/AsyncHttpClient/async-http-client/releases/tag/async-http-client-project-2.16.1"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/AsyncHttpClient/async-http-client/releases/tag/async-http-client-project-3.0.13"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"async-http-client","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:Pro:14.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/async-http-client?arch=source&distro=esm-infra-legacy%2Ftrusty"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["1.6.5-1","1.6.5-2","1.6.5-2ubuntu0.1~esm1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_version":"1.6.5-2ubuntu0.1~esm1","binary_name":"libasync-http-client-java"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2026/UBUNTU-CVE-2026-107281.json"}},{"package":{"name":"async-http-client","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:16.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/async-http-client?arch=source&distro=xenial"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["1.6.5-4"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"libasync-http-client-java","binary_version":"1.6.5-4"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2026/UBUNTU-CVE-2026-107281.json"}},{"package":{"name":"async-http-client","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:18.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/async-http-client?arch=source&distro=bionic"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["1.6.5-4","1.6.5-5"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"libasync-http-client-java","binary_version":"1.6.5-5"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2026/UBUNTU-CVE-2026-107281.json"}},{"package":{"name":"async-http-client","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:Pro:20.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/async-http-client?arch=source&distro=esm-apps%2Ffocal"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["2.6.0-1","2.6.0-1ubuntu0.1~esm1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"libasync-http-client-java","binary_version":"2.6.0-1ubuntu0.1~esm1"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2026/UBUNTU-CVE-2026-107281.json"}},{"package":{"name":"async-http-client","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:22.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/async-http-client?arch=source&distro=jammy"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["2.12.2-1","2.12.3-1","2.12.3-1ubuntu0.22.04.1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_version":"2.12.3-1ubuntu0.22.04.1","binary_name":"libasync-http-client-java"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2026/UBUNTU-CVE-2026-107281.json"}},{"package":{"name":"async-http-client","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:24.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/async-http-client?arch=source&distro=noble"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["2.12.3-1","2.12.3-1ubuntu0.24.04.1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"libasync-http-client-java","binary_version":"2.12.3-1ubuntu0.24.04.1"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2026/UBUNTU-CVE-2026-107281.json"}},{"package":{"name":"async-http-client","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:26.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/async-http-client?arch=source&distro=resolute"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["2.12.3-1","2.12.3-1ubuntu1","2.12.3-1ubuntu1.1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"libasync-http-client-java","binary_version":"2.12.3-1ubuntu1.1"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2026/UBUNTU-CVE-2026-107281.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V4","score":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:H/AT:P/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N"},{"type":"Ubuntu","score":"medium"}]}
