CVE-2026-44088
Last modified
CVE-2026-44088 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 8.6/10 on the CVSS scale. SzafirHost verifies the signature of the downloaded JAR file using class JarInputStream (reading from the beginning of the file), but loads classes using class JarFile/URLClassLoader (reading the Central Directory from the end). It can lead to remote code execution by allowing an attacker to combine a genuine, signed JAR file with a malicious ZIP file, causing the verification to pass but the malicious class to be loaded. This issue was fixed in version 1.2.1.. EPSS estimates a 0.45% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
