CVE-2026-45795

MEDIUMPre-NVD 5.35.3
EchelonGraph scoreMEDIUM confidence

This medium-severity CVE scores 5.3 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.2%, top 94% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).

The Janssen Project is an open-source identity and access management (IAM) platform. Prior to 2.0.0, jans-auth-server accepts unsigned JWE request objects because JwtAuthorizationRequest skips inner signature validation when jwe.getSignedJWTPayload() returns null, and AuthzRequestService.processRequestObject() does not reject the unrecognized RSA-OAEP algorithm when forceSignedRequestObject=true. This issue is fixed in version 2.0.0.
