Security

  • HIGH: Denial of Service in BigInteger.modInverse()
    • A Denial of Service (DoS) vulnerability exists due to an infinite loop in the BigInteger.modInverse() function (inherited from the bundled jsbn library). When modInverse() is called with a zero value as input, the internal Extended Euclidean Algorithm enters an unreachable exit condition, causing the process to hang indefinitely and consume 100% CPU.
    • Reported by Kr0emer.
    • CVE ID: CVE-2026-33891
    • GHSA ID: GHSA-5gfm-wpxj-wjgq
  • HIGH: Signature forgery in RSA-PKCS due to ASN.1 extra field.
    • RSASSA PKCS#1 v1.5 signature verification accepts forged signatures for low public exponent keys (e=3). Attackers can forge signatures by stuffing "garbage" bytes within the ASN.1 structure in order to construct a signature that passes verification, enabling Bleichenbacher style forgery. This issue is similar to CVE-2022-24771, but adds bytes in an addition field within the ASN.1 structure, rather than outside of it.
    • Additionally, forge does not validate that signatures include a minimum of 8 bytes of padding as defined by the specification, providing attackers additional space to construct Bleichenbacher forgeries.
    • Reported as part of a U.C. Berkeley security research project by:
      • Austin Chu, Sohee Kim, and Corban Villa.
    • CVE ID: CVE-2026-33894
    • GHSA ID: GHSA-ppp5-5v6c-4jwp
  • HIGH: Signature forgery in Ed25519 due to missing S < L check.
    • Ed25519 signature verification accepts forged non-canonical signatures where the scalar S is not reduced modulo the group order (S >= L). A valid signature and its S + L variant both verify in forge, while Node.js crypto.verify (OpenSSL-backed) rejects the S + L variant, as defined by the specification. This class of signature malleability has been exploited in practice to bypass authentication and authorization logic (see CVE-2026-25793, CVE-2022-35961). Applications relying on signature uniqueness (i.e., dedup by signature bytes, replay tracking, signed-object canonicalization checks) may be bypassed.
    • Reported as part of a U.C. Berkeley security research project by:
      • Austin Chu, Sohee Kim, and Corban Villa.
    • CVE ID: CVE-2026-33895
    • GHSA ID: GHSA-q67f-28xg-22rw
  • HIGH: basicConstraints bypass in certificate chain verification.
    • pki.verifyCertificateChain() does not enforce RFC 5280 basicConstraints requirements when an intermediate certificate lacks both the basicConstraints and keyUsage extensions. This allows any leaf certificate (without these extensions) to act as a CA and sign other certificates, which node-forge will accept as valid.
    • Reported by Doruk Tan Ozturk (@​peaktwilight) - doruk.ch
    • CVE ID: CVE-2026-33896
    • GHSA ID: GHSA-2328-f5f3-gj25

It looks like you are reviewing a Dependabot upgrade PR! 🛠️
That’s great! Keeping our packages up to date to fix security issues in our stack is super important. Team Application Security wants to help make this process as easy and low friction as possible while still moving at pace.

We aim to merge Dependabot PRs within the below timeframes. The objectives are based on the severity of the security vulnerability we are mitigating with the upgrade:

Severity Target Merge (days)
CRITICAL 7 days
HIGH 14 days
MEDIUM 30 days
LOW 90 days

🎯 Target merge date for this PR: 10/04/2026 🎯

FAQ

What if we aren’t vulnerable to this particular CVE? Do we still have to upgrade the package? It’s still a good idea to upgrade the package if we can. With new code patterns and paths being introduced every day, we have no guarantee that we won’t later make ourselves vulnerable. Keeping packages up to date as a matter of due course is also good hygiene.
What if we’re not vulnerable and upgrading is going to be a lot of work? In these cases it’s a good idea to list out the steps you took to confirm we are not vulnerable in this PR. The PR can then be closed and the corresponding Dependabot Alert should be dismissed with the triage steps included as a comment. Please get in touch with Team Application Security via #ask-security before dismissing any CRITICAL alerts.
This is a major version upgrade that requires substantial code refactoring. What should I do? If the upgrade requires substantial refactoring then it is possible that we will miss the objectives we have outlined above. In these cases, you should add the dependabot-refactor-required label to this PR and ping #ask-security for further advice.
