FKIE_CVE-2026-50268

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2026-06-17 23:17 - Updated: 2026-06-22 18:20
Severity
1.9 (Low) - CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N
Summary
Steeltoe is an open source project that provides a collection of libraries that helps users build cloud-native applications. In Steeltoe.Configuration.Encryption 4.0.0 through 4.1.0, configuring `encrypt:rsa:algorithm=OAEP` does not enable OAEP encryption. Due to an incorrect BouncyCastle transformation string, the `OAEP` setting selects PKCS#1 v1.5, which is the same algorithm as the `DEFAULT` setting. Steeltoe.Configuration.Encryption version 4.2.0 patches the issue.
