{"id":"UBUNTU-CVE-2026-118653","details":"Echo is a Go web framework. From 4.0.0 until 5.1.0, Context.RealIP falls back to client-supplied X-Forwarded-For or X-Real-IP values when Echo.IPExtractor is unset, and the default RateLimiter uses that result as its client identifier. A remote attacker can rotate arbitrary forwarded-address values to obtain new rate-limit buckets and bypass IP-based throttling used for controls such as brute-force or request-volume protection. This issue is fixed in Echo v5.1.0.","modified":"2026-10-29T20:03:06.282406903Z","published":"2026-10-29T00:00:00Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-118653"],"references":[{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2026-118653"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-118653"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/labstack/echo/commit/22e4b71109ef072ef011a489066ec662ca9565b2"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/labstack/echo/releases/tag/v5.1.0"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/labstack/echo/security/advisories/GHSA-246p-cpwv-v3jq"}],"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-2026-118653.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-2026-118653.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-2026-118653.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-2026-118653.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-2026-118653.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_version":"4.11.1-2","binary_name":"golang-github-labstack-echo-dev"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2026/UBUNTU-CVE-2026-118653.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-2026-118653.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-2026-118653.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.2","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N"},{"type":"Ubuntu","score":"medium"}]}
