Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-17578 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Kong Event Gateway. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. 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-2026-17578/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-17578/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-17578","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-17578/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-17578","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-v6xc-r9wm-438j"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Kong Event Gateway","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An authorized consumer can recover plaintext from messages if AES-GCM nonce collisions occur due to missing key rotation in Kong Event Gateway.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"weak_cryptography"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Kong","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":2.3,"severity":"low","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:L/SI:N/SA:N/AU:N/R:U/U:Amber","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-323","name":"Reusing a Nonce, Key Pair in Encryption"}],"description":"Kong Event Gateway versions 1.0.0 through 1.1.1 and 1.2.0 do not enforce key rotation before reaching NIST SP 800-38D recommended usage limit for AES-GCM encryption keys with random nonces when the AWS IAM encryption feature is enabled.\n\nIf a producer sends messages at a sustained high rate without key rotation, which only occurs on reboot of the Kong Event Gateway instance, the probability of a nonce collision becomes non-negligible.
