CVE-2025-14763 [MEDIUM] CWE-327 Amazon S3 Encryption Client for Java has a Key Commitment Issue
Amazon S3 Encryption Client for Java has a Key Commitment Issue
## Summary
S3 Encryption Client for Java is an open-source client-side encryption library used to facilitate writing and reading encrypted records to S3.
When the encrypted data key (EDK) is stored in an "Instruction File" instead of S3's metadata record, the EDK is exposed to an "Invisible Salamanders" attack (https://eprint.iacr.org/2019/016), which could allow the EDK to be replaced with a new key.
## Impact
### Background - Key Commitment
There is a cryptographic property whereby under certain conditions, a single ciphertext could be decrypted into 2 different plaintexts by using different encryption keys. To address this issue, strong encryption schemes use what is known as "key commitment", a process by which an e
