Last modified

CVE-2026-89318 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 6.9/10 on the CVSS scale. `JweRsaKeyEncryptionDecryptorImpl.Decrypt` passed the JWE's initialization vector to `cipher.AEAD.Open` without checking its length. The Go standard library **panics** rather than returning an error when a GCM nonce is not exactly `NonceSize()` bytes, so a JWE carrying a wrong-sized IV crashes the decrypting goroutine.. EPSS estimates a 0.17% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
