An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-22818 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- hono (npm): affected all versions; fixed in 4.11.4\n- hono (npm): affected all versions; fixed in 4.11.4\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-2026-22818/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-22818/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-22818","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-22818/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-22818","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-3vhc-576x-3qv4","MINI-g76w-r7h6-cv94","MINI-m762-j559-89gq"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Hono web framework","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can forge JWT tokens to bypass authentication in Hono applications using JWK middleware if the JWK lacks an explicit algorithm definition.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"hono","vendor":"hono"}],"cvss":{"score":8.2,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-347","name":"Improper Verification of Cryptographic Signature"}],"description":"Hono is a Web application framework that provides support for any JavaScript runtime. Prior to 4.11.4, there is a flaw in Hono’s JWK/JWKS JWT verification middleware allowed the algorithm specified in the JWT header to influence signature verification when the selected JWK did not explicitly define an algorithm. This could enable JWT algorithm confusion and, in certain configurations, allow forged tokens to be accepted. The JWK/JWKS JWT verification middleware has been updated to require an explicit allowlist of asymmetric algorithms when verifying tokens. The middleware no longer derives the verification algorithm from untrusted JWT header values.
