CVE-2026-63687
CriticalCVSS 9.1Summary
Apache CXF's JwtRequestCodeFilter copies all claims from a signed request JWT into the authorization parameter map without excluding security-sensitive parameters. A client that can produce a validly-signed request JWT can substitute code_challenge, code_challenge_method, nonce, and state values, undermining PKCE integrity and OpenID Connect replay protection. Users are advised to upgrade to versions 4.2.3, 4.1.8, or 3.6.12.
Risk Assessment
Risk of compromising PKCE integrity and replay protection, potentially enabling man-in-the-middle attacks or unauthorized access.
Recommendation
Upgrade Apache CXF to versions 4.2.3, 4.1.8, or 3.6.12, which fix this vulnerability.
Original NVD description (English source)
Apache CXF's JwtRequestCodeFilter copies all claims from a signed request JWT into the authorization parameter map without excluding security-sensitive parameters. A client that can produce a validly-signed request JWT (e.g., one whose client_secret is known or compromised) can thereby substitute the code_challenge, code_challenge_method, nonce, and state values that were set in the outer HTTP request, undermining PKCE integrity and OpenID Connect replay protection. Users are recommended to upgrade to versions 4.2.3 or 4.1.8 or 3.6.12, which fix this issue.
