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-2026-53431 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- boruta (Hex): affected from 2.3.0; fixed in 2.3.7\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-2026-53431/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-53431/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-53431","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-53431/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-53431","record":{"aliases":["EEF-CVE-2026-53431","GHSA-xjv8-vmh5-xhf6"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Elixir OAuth library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can replay expired JWT client assertions to authenticate as OAuth clients and obtain access tokens due to missing expiration validation.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"EEF","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":9.1,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","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-294","name":"Authentication Bypass by Capture-replay"}],"description":"Authentication Bypass by Capture-replay vulnerability in malach-it Boruta allows an attacker who has obtained a previously valid JWT client assertion to authenticate as the issuing OAuth client after the assertion has expired.\n\nBoruta accepts JWT-based client authentication (client_secret_jwt and private_key_jwt token endpoint authentication methods) but never enforces that the assertion's exp claim is in the future. The pre-check helper Boruta.Oauth.Request.Base.check_expiration/1 in lib/boruta/oauth/request/base.ex only verifies that an exp claim is present (it pattern-matches on the existence of the key and returns success), and the Joken token configuration used for signature verification, Boruta.Oauth.Authorization.Client.Token.token_config/0 in lib/boruta/oauth/authorization/client.ex, returns an empty map, so Joken's default exp claim validator is not engaged either. Any attacker who obtains a validly-signed client assertion (for example through logs, reverse proxies, browser tooling, or other observability surfaces) can replay it indefinitely to authenticate as the client and obtain access tokens with that client's privileges.\n\nThis issue affects boruta: from 2.3.0 before 2.3.7.","ecosystems":["Hex"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Boruta accepts expired JWT client assertions due to missing exp claim validation","id":"CVE-2026-53431","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Hex","product":null,"products":[],"type":"auth_bypass","year":"2026"},"n_packages":1,"n_references":5,"next":{"headline":"Integer Overflow in fzf","id":"CVE-2026-53432"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Hex","fixed":["2.3.7"],"introduced":["2.3.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"boruta","purl":"pkg:hex/boruta","source":"EEF-CVE-2026-53431"}],"prev":{"headline":"grpc gzip decompression bomb in GRPC.Compressor.Gzip.decompress/1","id":"CVE-2026-53430"},"products":["boruta"],"published":"2026-07-30","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"Erlang Ecosystem Foundation","prefix":"EEF"},{"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":"2026-07-31","vendors":["malach-it"]},"summary":"Attackers can replay expired JWT client assertions to authenticate as OAuth clients and obtain access tokens due to missing expiration validation.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-53431/"}
