An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-33936 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- ecdsa (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 0.19.2\n- ecdsa (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 0.19.2\n- ecdsa (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 0.19.2\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-2026-33936/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-33936/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-33936","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-33936/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-33936","record":{"aliases":["AZL-80975","CLEANSTART-2026-OH68688","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-33936","ECHO-dc11-daa6-fc93","GHSA-9f5j-8jwj-x28g","MINI-qcwf-3r36-gh33","OESA-2026-1828","OESA-2026-1829","OESA-2026-1836","OESA-2026-1837","OESA-2026-1838","OESA-2026-1839","PYSEC-2026-2467","ROOT-APP-PYPI-CVE-2026-33936","SUSE-SU-2026:1436-1","SUSE-SU-2026:1608-1","SUSE-SU-2026:22158-1","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-33936","openSUSE-SU-2026:10468-1","openSUSE-SU-2026:21078-1"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Python ECDSA library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can cause denial of service in applications parsing untrusted DER private keys by triggering unhandled exceptions in the python-ecdsa library.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"ecdsa","vendor":"tlsfuzzer"}],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"},{"id":"CWE-130","name":"Improper Handling of Length Parameter Inconsistency"}],"description":"The `ecdsa` PyPI package is a pure Python implementation of ECC (Elliptic Curve Cryptography) with support for ECDSA (Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm), EdDSA (Edwards-curve Digital Signature Algorithm) and ECDH (Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman). Prior to version 0.19.2, an issue in the low-level DER parsing functions can cause unexpected exceptions to be raised from the public API functions. `ecdsa.der.remove_octet_string()` accepts truncated DER where the encoded length exceeds the available buffer. For example, an OCTET STRING that declares a length of 4096 bytes but provides only 3 bytes is parsed successfully instead of being rejected. Because of that, a crafted DER input can cause `SigningKey.from_der()` to raise an internal exception (`IndexError: index out of bounds on dimension 1`) rather than cleanly rejecting malformed DER (e.g., raising `UnexpectedDER` or `ValueError`). Applications that parse untrusted DER private keys may crash if they do not handle unexpected exceptions, resulting in a denial of service. Version 0.19.2 patches the issue.","ecosystems":["PyPI","SUSE:Linux Enterprise Module for Basesystem 15 SP7","SUSE:Linux Enterprise Module for Python 3 15 SP7","SUSE:Linux Enterprise Server 16.0","SUSE:Linux Enterprise Server for SAP applications 16.0","openSUSE:Leap 15.6","openSUSE:Leap 16.0","openSUSE:Tumbleweed"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":"2026-04-02","github_poc":1,"max_poc_stars":1,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2026-04-02T03:18:21Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/0xmrma/CVE-2026-33936","stars":1,"title":"Denial of Service vulnerability in ecdsa (PyPI)"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"python-ecdsa: Denial of Service via improper DER length validation in crafted private keys","id":"CVE-2026-33936","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"PyPI","product":null,"products":[],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2026"},"n_packages":10,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Handlebars.js has JavaScript Injection via AST Type Confusion","id":"CVE-2026-33937"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["0.19.2"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"ecdsa","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-9f5j-8jwj-x28g"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["0.19.2"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"ecdsa","purl":"pkg:pypi/ecdsa","source":"GHSA-9f5j-8jwj-x28g"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["0.19.2"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"ecdsa","purl":"pkg:pypi/ecdsa","source":"PYSEC-2026-2467"},{"ecosystem":"SUSE:Linux Enterprise Module for Basesystem 15 SP7","fixed":["0.13.3-150000.3.10.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"python-ecdsa","purl":"pkg:rpm/suse/python-ecdsa\u0026distro=SUSE%20Linux%20Enterprise%20Module%20for%20Basesystem%2015%20SP7","source":"SUSE-SU-2026:1608-1"},{"ecosystem":"SUSE:Linux Enterprise Module for Python 3 15 SP7","fixed":["0.18.0-150400.12.6.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"python-ecdsa","purl":"pkg:rpm/suse/python-ecdsa\u0026distro=SUSE%20Linux%20Enterprise%20Module%20for%20Python%203%2015%20SP7","source":"SUSE-SU-2026:1436-1"},{"ecosystem":"SUSE:Linux Enterprise Server 16.0","fixed":["0.19.1-160000.4.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"python-ecdsa","purl":"pkg:rpm/suse/python-ecdsa\u0026distro=SUSE%20Linux%20Enterprise%20Server%2016.0","source":"SUSE-SU-2026:22158-1"},{"ecosystem":"SUSE:Linux Enterprise Server for SAP applications 16.0","fixed":["0.19.1-160000.4.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"python-ecdsa","purl":"pkg:rpm/suse/python-ecdsa\u0026distro=SUSE%20Linux%20Enterprise%20Server%20for%20SAP%20applications%2016.0","source":"SUSE-SU-2026:22158-1"},{"ecosystem":"openSUSE:Leap 15.6","fixed":["0.18.0-150400.12.6.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"python-ecdsa","purl":"pkg:rpm/opensuse/python-ecdsa\u0026distro=openSUSE%20Leap%2015.6","source":"SUSE-SU-2026:1436-1"},{"ecosystem":"openSUSE:Leap 16.0","fixed":["0.19.1-160000.4.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"python-ecdsa","purl":"pkg:rpm/opensuse/python-ecdsa\u0026distro=openSUSE%20Leap%2016.0","source":"openSUSE-SU-2026:21078-1"},{"ecosystem":"openSUSE:Tumbleweed","fixed":["0.19.2-1.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"python-ecdsa","purl":"pkg:rpm/opensuse/python-ecdsa\u0026distro=openSUSE%20Tumbleweed","source":"openSUSE-SU-2026:10468-1"}],"prev":{"headline":"MyTube has Unauthenticated Account Lockout via Shared Login Attempt State","id":"CVE-2026-33935"},"products":["python-ecdsa"],"published":"2026-03-27","related":[{"cvss_score":7.4,"headline":"python-ecdsa vulnerable to Minerva attack on P-256","id":"CVE-2024-23342","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-01-22"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"PyPA Advisory Database","prefix":"PYSEC"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"SUSE","prefix":"SUSE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"SUSE","prefix":"openSUSE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"open","licence":"CC0","name":"PoC-in-GitHub"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-04-01","vendors":["tlsfuzzer"]},"summary":"Attackers can cause denial of service in applications parsing untrusted DER private keys by triggering unhandled exceptions in the python-ecdsa library.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-33936/"}
