{"id":"UBUNTU-CVE-2026-119187","details":"Forge (also called node-forge) is a native implementation of Transport Layer Security in JavaScript. Prior to 1.4.1, the affected implementation used forge.tls.createConnection(), TLS record processing, process() to process the relevant input or security decision. node-forge processed received TLS records recursively, consuming one JavaScript stack frame per record in a single input chunk. A remote peer could send thousands of small records together and exhaust the call stack, causing an uncaught exception and denial of service. This issue is fixed in version 1.4.1.","modified":"2026-10-31T03:30:10.326768796Z","published":"2026-10-30T00:00:00Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-119187"],"references":[{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2026-119187"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-119187"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/digitalbazaar/forge/commit/817e2ce0d0f6d8a25bc9c2670615c38a9ffdc51c"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/digitalbazaar/forge/releases/tag/v1.4.1"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/digitalbazaar/forge/security/advisories/GHSA-hqq3-7jhf-c5jx"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"node-node-forge","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:20.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/node-node-forge?arch=source&distro=focal"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["0.8.5~dfsg-2","0.9.1~dfsg-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"libjs-node-forge","binary_version":"0.9.1~dfsg-1"},{"binary_name":"node-node-forge","binary_version":"0.9.1~dfsg-1"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2026/UBUNTU-CVE-2026-119187.json"}},{"package":{"name":"node-node-forge","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:22.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/node-node-forge?arch=source&distro=jammy"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["0.10.0~dfsg-3","1.2.1~dfsg-2"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"libjs-node-forge","binary_version":"1.2.1~dfsg-2"},{"binary_version":"1.2.1~dfsg-2","binary_name":"node-node-forge"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2026/UBUNTU-CVE-2026-119187.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:N/A:H"},{"type":"Ubuntu","score":"medium"}]}
