CVE-2026-48791 at a Glance
Security Impact
CVSS: 2.0
The security impact metrics below are parsed directly from the CVSS v3.1 vector string (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N).
How to Fix CVE-2026-48791
To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Sigstore java dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.
<dependency>
<groupId>dev.sigstore</groupId>
<artifactId>sigstore-java</artifactId>
<version>2.1.0</version>
</dependency>
Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release:
mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=dev.sigstore
How to Check if You Are Affected
To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2026-48791, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:
mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=dev.sigstore
Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Sigstore java in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 2.1.0), your application is affected.
Note: The mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=dev.sigstore 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

Older versions are not affected, it is fixed in `dev.sigstore:sigstore-java:2.1.0`\n\nA malicious actor may exploit this if they were able to access a users system and exfiltrate the temporary private key used during signing and then reuse an old fulcio certificate later without requiring direct access to the user's credentials.\n\nUsers may protect themselves by re-verifying their artifacts using the newest sigstore-java or another current sigstore client. Transparency logs may also be audited for unauthorized signatures for a suspected reused identity.",
