{"id":"UBUNTU-CVE-2026-118266","details":"Echo is a Go web framework. Prior to 4.16.0 and 5.4.0, Echo's MethodOverride middleware accepts a safe HTTP method as the override target for a POST request. When MethodOverride is registered before CSRF in the post-routing middleware chain, route selection retains the original state-changing POST handler but the override changes the method before CSRF evaluates it, causing both token validation and Sec-Fetch-Site checks to be skipped. A cross-site exploit requires an authenticated victim and an override value that a browser-submitted request can control, such as the form getter used by the advisory reproducer; the default X-HTTP-Method-Override header getter is not settable by a cross-site form. This issue is fixed in 4.16.0 and 5.4.0.","modified":"2026-10-29T20:03:06.509603230Z","published":"2026-10-29T00:00:00Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-118266"],"references":[{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2026-118266"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-118266"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/labstack/echo/commit/b838391e2eade87ae7e5a09d7bb5087bec271ec1"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/labstack/echo/commit/fc410094b2f3415cf2bf5204082137b205bfd5af"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/labstack/echo/releases/tag/v4.16.0"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/labstack/echo/releases/tag/v5.4.0"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/labstack/echo/security/advisories/GHSA-r7w9-592q-9vg4"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"golang-github-labstack-echo.v2","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:20.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/golang-github-labstack-echo.v2?arch=source&distro=focal"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["2.2.0-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"golang-github-labstack-echo.v2-dev","binary_version":"2.2.0-1"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2026/UBUNTU-CVE-2026-118266.json"}},{"package":{"name":"golang-github-labstack-echo.v3","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:20.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/golang-github-labstack-echo.v3?arch=source&distro=focal"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["3.3.5-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_version":"3.3.5-1","binary_name":"golang-github-labstack-echo.v3-dev"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2026/UBUNTU-CVE-2026-118266.json"}},{"package":{"name":"golang-github-labstack-echo","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:22.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/golang-github-labstack-echo?arch=source&distro=jammy"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["4.2.1-2"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"golang-github-labstack-echo-dev","binary_version":"4.2.1-2"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2026/UBUNTU-CVE-2026-118266.json"}},{"package":{"name":"golang-github-labstack-echo.v2","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:22.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/golang-github-labstack-echo.v2?arch=source&distro=jammy"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["2.2.0-2"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_version":"2.2.0-2","binary_name":"golang-github-labstack-echo.v2-dev"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2026/UBUNTU-CVE-2026-118266.json"}},{"package":{"name":"golang-github-labstack-echo.v3","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:22.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/golang-github-labstack-echo.v3?arch=source&distro=jammy"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["3.3.10-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_version":"3.3.10-1","binary_name":"golang-github-labstack-echo.v3-dev"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2026/UBUNTU-CVE-2026-118266.json"}},{"package":{"name":"golang-github-labstack-echo","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:24.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/golang-github-labstack-echo?arch=source&distro=noble"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["4.11.1-2"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"golang-github-labstack-echo-dev","binary_version":"4.11.1-2"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2026/UBUNTU-CVE-2026-118266.json"}},{"package":{"name":"golang-github-labstack-echo","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:26.10","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/golang-github-labstack-echo?arch=source&distro=stonking"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["4.12.0-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"golang-github-labstack-echo-dev","binary_version":"4.12.0-1"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2026/UBUNTU-CVE-2026-118266.json"}},{"package":{"name":"golang-github-labstack-echo","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:26.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/golang-github-labstack-echo?arch=source&distro=resolute"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["4.12.0-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"golang-github-labstack-echo-dev","binary_version":"4.12.0-1"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2026/UBUNTU-CVE-2026-118266.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.2","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N"},{"type":"Ubuntu","score":"medium"}]}
