Apache CXF OIDC Token Validation Bypass (selfissued IDs) <4.2.3
CVE-2026-65583 Published on August 6, 2026
Apache CXF: Self-issued ID token claims validation skipped
Apache CXFs OIDC relying-party token validation could accept self-issued ID tokens without enforcing required claim checks (issuer/subject/audience/time and sub_jwk binding), enabling authentication bypass with crafted tokens. However, note that self-issued ID tokens are not accepted by default in the validator. Users are recommended to upgrade to versions 4.2.3 or 4.1.8 or 3.6.12, which fixes this issue.
