CVE-2026-48758
Last modified
CVE-2026-48758 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 5.4/10 on the CVSS scale. sigstore-js provides JavaScript libraries for interacting with Sigstore services. Prior to 3.2.1, the preAuthEncoding function in @sigstore/core uses Node.js ascii encoding when converting the PAE string to bytes, allowing payloadType to be mutated after signing without invalidating the signature and breaking the type-binding guarantee that DSSE is designed to provide. EPSS estimates a 0.26% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
