Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-101296/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-101296/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-101296","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-101296/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-101296","record":{"aliases":["BIT-tomcat-2026-101296","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-101296","GHSA-5q2g-877c-9cwh","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-101296"],"analysis":null,"analysis_generated_by":null,"assigner":"apache","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":9.1,"severity":"critical","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-304","name":"Missing Critical Step in Authentication"}],"description":"A missing critical step in authentication vulnerability in Apache Tomcat when the JNDI realm was configured with with a non GSSAPI SASL authentication mechanism allowed attackers to authenticate without providing the correct password.\n\nThis issue affects Apache Tomcat: from 11.0.0-M1 through 11.0.26, from 10.1.0-M1 through 10.1.60, from 9.0.0.M1 through 9.0.122.\n\nThe following versions were EOL at the time the CVE was created but are known to be affected: from 8.5.0 through 8.5.100, from 7.0.0 through 7.0.109. Other unsupported versions may also be affected.\n\nUsers are recommended to upgrade to version 11.0.27, 10.1.61 or 9.0.123, which fix the issue.","ecosystems":["Bitnami"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Apache Tomcat: JNDIRealm bind credential validation fails open for non-GSSAPI SASL mechanisms","id":"CVE-2026-101296","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Bitnami","product":null,"products":[],"type":null,"year":"2026"},"n_packages":1,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Server-Side Request Forgery in Wegow PDF export","id":"CVE-2026-101300"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Bitnami","fixed":["9.0.123","10.1.61","11.0.27"],"introduced":["7.0.0","10.1.0","11.0.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"tomcat","purl":"pkg:bitnami/tomcat","source":"BIT-tomcat-2026-101296"}],"prev":{"headline":"Oc-mirror: oc-mirror: path traversal / arbitrary file write in operator catalog image extraction","id":"CVE-2026-101295"},"products":["Apache Tomcat"],"published":"2026-10-20","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"Apache-2.0","name":"Bitnami","prefix":"BIT"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-10-21","vendors":["Apache Software Foundation"]},"summary":null,"url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-101296/"}
