CVE-2026-3012: Software Security Vulnerability Vulnerability
HIGHCVE-2026-3012 is a HIGH (CVSS 8.0) security vulnerability vulnerability (CWE-345: Insufficient Verification of Data Authenticity) affecting Software libraries in the Maven ecosystem. The weakness occurs when the product does not sufficiently verify the origin or authenticity of data, in a way that causes it to accept invalid data.. Remediation is available in the latest vendor maintenance releases.
CVE-2026-3012 at a Glance
Security Impact
CVSS: 8.0
The security impact metrics below are parsed directly from the CVSS v3.1 vector string (CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:N).
How to Fix CVE-2026-3012
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-2026-3012, 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.

When certificate auto-enrollment is enabled, Samba may retrieve a CA certificate over an unencrypted HTTP connection and install it into the local trust store without proper verification. An attacker with the ability to intercept or redirect network traffic could exploit this behavior to supply a malicious certificate authority certificate, potentially allowing interception or spoofing of trusted communications.",
