CVE-2026-63914: Software Security Vulnerability Vulnerability
HIGHCVE-2026-63914 is a HIGH (CVSS 7.3) security vulnerability vulnerability (CWE-862: Missing Authorization) affecting Software libraries in the Maven ecosystem. The weakness occurs when the product does not perform an authorization check when an actor attempts to access a resource or perform an action.. Remediation is available in the latest vendor maintenance releases.
CVE-2026-63914 at a Glance
Security Impact
CVSS: 7.3
The security impact metrics below are parsed directly from the CVSS v3.1 vector string (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:L).
How to Fix CVE-2026-63914
To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Software dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.
Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release:
mvn dependency:treeHow to Check if You Are Affected
To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2026-63914, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:
mvn dependency:treeAnalyze the terminal output to locate any version of Software in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than the patched release), your application is affected.
Note: The mvn dependency:tree command inspects the resolved dependency graph declared in your project's POM files; it does not perform automated security scanning or inspect runtime dynamic classpaths. Always verify runtime container classpaths and shaded JARs.
Technical Details
Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis
This vulnerability is classified under CWE-862: Missing Authorization, where the product does not perform an authorization check when an actor attempts to access a resource or perform an action. In Software, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing.

"details" : "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nxfrm: route MIGRATE notifications to caller's netns\n\nxfrm_send_migrate() in net/xfrm/xfrm_user.c and pfkey_send_migrate()\nin net/key/af_key.c both hardcode &init_net for the multicast that\nannounces a successful XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE / SADB_X_MIGRATE.\n\nXFRM_MSG_MIGRATE arrives on a per-netns NETLINK_XFRM socket, and the\nrest of the xfrm/af_key netlink path was made netns-aware in 2008.\nThe other 14 multicast paths in xfrm_user.c route their event using\nxs_net(x), xp_net(xp) or sock_net(skb->sk); only the migrate path\nwas missed.\n\nTwo consequences of the init_net hardcoding:\n\n 1. The notification (selector, old/new endpoint addresses, and the\n km_address) is delivered to listeners on init_net's\n XFRMNLGRP_MIGRATE / pfkey BROADCAST_ALL groups rather than on\n the issuing netns. An IKE daemon running in init_net therefore\n receives migration notifications originating from any other\n netns on the host.\n\n 2. An IKE daemon running inside a non-init netns and subscribed\n to its own XFRMNLGRP_MIGRATE / pfkey groups never receives the\n notification of its own migration. IKEv2 MOBIKE / address-update\n handling inside a netns is silently broken.\n\nThread struct net through km_migrate() and the xfrm_mgr.migrate\nfunction pointer, drop the &init_net override in xfrm_send_migrate()\nand pfkey_send_migrate(), and pass the caller's net (already in\nscope in xfrm_migrate() via sock_net(skb->sk)) all the way down.\nstruct xfrm_mgr is in-tree only and not exported as a stable API,\nso the function-pointer signature change is internal.\n\npfkey_broadcast() is already netns-aware via net_generic(net,\npfkey_net_id) since the pernet conversion. The five other\npfkey_broadcast() callers in af_key.c already pass xs_net(x),\nsock_net(sk) or a per-netns net, so this only removes the\n&init_net outlier.",
