CVE-2026-50629: Apache Cxf

Medium severity, CVSS 5.3. EPSS: 0.7% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The 'clientId' parameter from incoming HTTP requests is directly concatenated into OAuth2 server log warning messages without sanitizing control characters. This allows an attacker to inject arbitrary content, including fake log entries, into the server's log files. Users are recommended to upgrade to versions 4.2.2 or 4.1.7 or 3.6.12, which fixes this issue.

Affected products

• Apache Cxf: before 4.1.7 (fixed in 4.1.7); from 4.2.0, before 4.2.2 (fixed in 4.2.2)
