Description

This security bulletin contains information about 5 vulnerabilities.


1) Improper Verification of Cryptographic Signature (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-94212)

CWE-ID: CWE-347 - Improper Verification of Cryptographic Signature

CVSSv4: 7.1 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a remote user to impersonate any user.

The vulnerability exists due to improper verification of cryptographic signature in the saml-auth plugin when processing SAML authentication data. A remote user can provide SAML authentication data to impersonate any user.

Only routes protected by the saml-auth plugin under the default configuration are affected.


2) Cross-site request forgery (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-94220)

CWE-ID: CWE-352 - Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)

CVSSv4: 2.1 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause actions performed by a victim to be attributed to the attacker's account.

The vulnerability exists due to cross-site request forgery in the feishu-auth and dingtalk-auth plugins when a user clicks a crafted link. A remote attacker can trick a user into clicking a crafted link to establish the user's browser session on a protected route under the attacker's identity.


3) Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-94250)

CWE-ID: CWE-770 - Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling

CVSSv4: 8.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to allocation of resources without limits or throttling in the batch-requests plugin when processing batch requests through a publicly exposed batch endpoint. A remote attacker can send batch requests that exhaust gateway worker memory to cause a denial of service.


4) Use of Non-Canonical URL Paths for Authorization Decisions (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-94269)

CWE-ID: CWE-647 - Use of Non-Canonical URL Paths for Authorization Decisions

CVSSv4: 6.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to access protected upstream endpoints.

The vulnerability exists due to use of non-canonical URL paths for authorization decisions in Apache APISIX route and upstream authorization handling when processing crafted encoded paths where a permissive route overlaps a protected route. A remote attacker can send a crafted request to access protected upstream endpoints.


5) Improper Authentication (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-94276)

CWE-ID: CWE-287 - Improper Authentication

CVSSv4: 7.1 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a remote user to gain unauthorized access to resources restricted to another issuer.

The vulnerability exists due to improper authentication in the openid-connect plugin when performing remote token introspection. A remote user can present a token active for one issuer to a route restricted to another issuer to gain unauthorized access to resources restricted to another issuer.

The authorization server must serve multiple issuers.
