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-2026-42278 exists.\n\nAffected product: UltraDAGcom core. 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-2026-42278/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-42278/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-42278","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-42278/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-42278","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-9chc-gjfr-6hrq"],"analysis":{"component_type":"other","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_modify","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"UltraDAG blockchain","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can bypass spending policies and drain funds from derived pockets in UltraDAG by exploiting a logic flaw in transaction validation.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"business_logic"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-639","name":"Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key"},{"id":"CWE-284","name":"Improper Access Control"}],"description":"UltraDAG is a minimal DAG-BFT blockchain in Rust. Prior to commit fb6ef59, the UltraDAG StateEngine implementation of SmartTransferTx contains a critical logic flaw in its policy enforcement pipeline. When a transaction originates from a \"Pocket\" (a derived sub-address documented in the protocol as a way to organize funds), the engine fails to resolve the pocket's parent account before checking the spending policy. Because pockets are \"virtual\" addresses that exist only as entries in the pocket_to_parent map and do not have their own SmartAccountConfig entries, the check_spending_policy method defaults to an \"authorized/no policy\" result. This allow any user (or attacker in possession of a parent key) to instantly drain every pocket on an account, even if the parent account has a strict 24-hour vault delay or a 1 UDAG daily limit. This issue has been patched via commit fb6ef59.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"UltraDAG: Smart Account Spending Policy Bypass via Pockets","id":"CVE-2026-42278","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"business_logic","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"solidtime: Time entry update endpoint allows cross-organization modification of a known time-entry UUID","id":"CVE-2026-42279"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Onyx: IDOR in /chat/file/{file_id} allows any authenticated user to download other users files","id":"CVE-2026-42277"},"products":["core"],"published":"2026-05-08","related":[],"sources":[{"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":"poc","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-05-08","vendors":["UltraDAGcom"]},"summary":"Attackers can bypass spending policies and drain funds from derived pockets in UltraDAG by exploiting a logic flaw in transaction validation.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-42278/"}
