CVE-2026-50631 [HIGH] CWE-367 CVE-2026-50631: A race condition in AbstractOAuthDataProvider allows concurrent requests using the same Refresh Toke A race condition in AbstractOAuthDataProvider allows concurrent requests using the same Refresh Token to bypass single-use semantics and generate multiple valid Access Tokens, when 'recycleRefreshTokens' is set to false. A leaked refresh token can be replayed concurrently by multiple attackers or threads. Users are recommended to upgrade to versions 4

CVE-2021-22696 [HIGH] CWE-400 CVE-2021-22696: CXF supports (via JwtRequestCodeFilter) passing OAuth 2 parameters via a JWT token as opposed to que CXF supports (via JwtRequestCodeFilter) passing OAuth 2 parameters via a JWT token as opposed to query parameters (see: The OAuth 2.0 Authorization Framework: JWT Secured Authorization Request (JAR)). Instead of sending a JWT token as a "request" parameter, the spec also supports specifying a URI from which to retrieve a JWT token from via the "reques

CVE-2019-12423 [HIGH] CWE-522 CVE-2019-12423: Apache CXF ships with a OpenId Connect JWK Keys service, which allows a client to obtain the public Apache CXF ships with a OpenId Connect JWK Keys service, which allows a client to obtain the public keys in JWK format, which can then be used to verify the signature of tokens issued by the service. Typically, the service obtains the public key from a local keystore (JKS/PKCS12) by specifing the path of the keystore and the alias of the keystore entry

CVE-2016-8739 [HIGH] CWE-611 CVE-2016-8739: The JAX-RS module in Apache CXF prior to 3.0.12 and 3.1.x prior to 3.1.9 provides a number of Atom J The JAX-RS module in Apache CXF prior to 3.0.12 and 3.1.x prior to 3.1.9 provides a number of Atom JAX-RS MessageBodyReaders. These readers use Apache Abdera Parser which expands XML entities by default which represents a major XXE risk.

CVE-2026-68481 [HIGH] CWE-672 CVE-2026-68481: In Apache CXF's DefaultEncryptingOAuthDataProvider, revoked access tokens still decrypt successfully In Apache CXF's DefaultEncryptingOAuthDataProvider, revoked access tokens still decrypt successfully, and TokenIntrospectionService reports active:true. The same applies to refresh tokens. This violates the RFC stipulations that 'The authorization server MUST invalidate the token.' and 'introspection of a revoked token MUST return {"active":false}'. U

CVE-2017-3156 [HIGH] CVE-2017-3156: The OAuth2 Hawk and JOSE MAC Validation code in Apache CXF prior to 3.0.13 and 3.1.x prior to 3.1.10 The OAuth2 Hawk and JOSE MAC Validation code in Apache CXF prior to 3.0.13 and 3.1.x prior to 3.1.10 is not using a constant time MAC signature comparison algorithm which may be exploited by sophisticated timing attacks.

CVE-2020-13954 [MEDIUM] CVE-2020-13954: By default, Apache CXF creates a /services page containing a listing of the available endpoint names By default, Apache CXF creates a /services page containing a listing of the available endpoint names and addresses. This webpage is vulnerable to a reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attack via the styleSheetPath, which allows a malicious actor to inject javascript into the web page. This vulnerability affects all versions of Apache CXF prior to 3.4.1 and

CVE-2022-46363 [HIGH] CWE-20 CVE-2022-46363: A vulnerability in Apache CXF before versions 3.5.5 and 3.4.10 allows an attacker to perform a remot A vulnerability in Apache CXF before versions 3.5.5 and 3.4.10 allows an attacker to perform a remote directory listing or code exfiltration. The vulnerability only applies when the CXFServlet is configured with both the static-resources-list and redirect-query-check attributes. These attributes are not supposed to be used together, and so the vulnerab

CVE-2017-5656 [HIGH] CWE-384 CVE-2017-5656: Apache CXF's STSClient before 3.1.11 and 3.0.13 uses a flawed way of caching tokens that are associa Apache CXF's STSClient before 3.1.11 and 3.0.13 uses a flawed way of caching tokens that are associated with delegation tokens, which means that an attacker could craft a token which would return an identifer corresponding to a cached token for another user.

CVE-2026-65432 [HIGH] CWE-611 CVE-2026-65432: Apache CXF reads a top-level WSDL through its hardened StaxUtils path, which disables XML DTDs and e Apache CXF reads a top-level WSDL through its hardened StaxUtils path, which disables XML DTDs and external entities. However, any or referenced from that top-level WSDL is handed off to WSDL4J, which does not disable DOCTYPE declarations or external entities. As a result, the protections applied to the top-level document do not extend to imported doc

CVE-2026-57819 [HIGH] CWE-400 CVE-2026-57819: Apache CXF allows to set a limit on the number of form parameters in a JAX-RS message via the "maxFo Apache CXF allows to set a limit on the number of form parameters in a JAX-RS message via the "maxFormParameterCount" configuration option. However, no default limit is set which may lead to denial of service attacks when processing requests with very large numbers of form parameters. Users are recommended to upgrade to versions 4.2.3 or 4.1.8 or 3.6.

CVE-2026-54225 [HIGH] CWE-770 CVE-2026-54225: Apache CXF allows to control the maximum attachment size via the "attachment-max-size". Prior to Apa Apache CXF allows to control the maximum attachment size via the "attachment-max-size". Prior to Apache CXF 4.2.3 and 4.1.8 and 3.6.12, there was no default placed on this size, meaning that a denial of service attack is possible if the user doesn't explicitly set the limit. Users should update to Apache CXF 4.2.3 or 4.1.8 or 3.6.12 which fixes this p

CVE-2012-2379 [CRITICAL] CVE-2012-2379: Apache CXF 2.4.x before 2.4.8, 2.5.x before 2.5.4, and 2.6.x before 2.6.1, when a Supporting Token s Apache CXF 2.4.x before 2.4.8, 2.5.x before 2.5.4, and 2.6.x before 2.6.1, when a Supporting Token specifies a child WS-SecurityPolicy 1.1 or 1.2 policy, does not properly ensure that an XML element is signed or encrypted, which has unspecified impact and attack vectors.

CVE-2025-23184 [HIGH] CWE-400 CVE-2025-23184: A potential denial of service vulnerability is present in versions of Apache CXF before 3.5.10, 3.6. A potential denial of service vulnerability is present in versions of Apache CXF before 3.5.10, 3.6.5 and 4.0.6. In some edge cases, the CachedOutputStream instances may not be closed and, if backed by temporary files, may fill up the file system (it applies to servers and clients).
