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-2026-55735 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- guardian (Hex): affected from 1.0.0; fixed in 2.4.1\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-2026-55735/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-55735/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-55735","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-55735/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-55735","record":{"aliases":["EEF-CVE-2026-55735","GHSA-7975-hp3r-5qhv"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Elixir authentication library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An unauthenticated attacker can revoke victim sessions by submitting forged tokens to the Guardian.revoke/3 function, causing a denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"EEF","cpe":[{"product":"guardian","vendor":"ueberauth"}],"cvss":{"score":8.2,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-347","name":"Improper Verification of Cryptographic Signature"}],"description":"Improper Verification of Cryptographic Signature in ueberauth guardian allows an unauthenticated attacker to revoke a victim's session with a forged token.\n\nGuardian.revoke/3 in lib/guardian.ex decodes the supplied token with peek/1, which performs no signature verification (it only base64-decodes the JWT header and payload). The resulting unverified claims are forwarded directly to the configured token module's revoke callback and the implementation's on_revoke callback, a state-mutating sink. The sibling operations refresh/2 and exchange/4 both call decode_and_verify first, so the signature is checked before anything acts on the claims; revoke/3 is the only state-mutating path that acts on claims without verifying the signature.\n\nAn attacker who knows or guesses a victim's identifying claim values (jti, sub) can forge a JWT carrying those claims, sign it with an arbitrary key, and submit it to any endpoint that funnels a caller-supplied token into Guardian.revoke/3 (the standard logout / session-revocation pattern). When the token module mutates state keyed by the claims (whitelist deletion or blacklist insertion, for example a GuardianDb-style store), the victim's legitimate session is evicted. This is an unauthenticated session-revocation denial of service; the attacker never needs the signing secret.\n\nThis issue affects guardian: from 1.0.0 before 2.4.1.","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":"Guardian.revoke/3 acts on unverified token claims, allowing forged-token session revocation","id":"CVE-2026-55735","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Hex","product":null,"products":[],"type":"security_feature_bypass","year":"2026"},"n_packages":1,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Private action arguments can be set by user input in Ash","id":"CVE-2026-55736"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Hex","fixed":["2.4.1"],"introduced":["1.0.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"guardian","purl":"pkg:hex/guardian","source":"EEF-CVE-2026-55735"}],"prev":{"headline":"guardian atom exhaustion in Guardian.Permissions.encode_permissions!/1","id":"CVE-2026-55734"},"products":["guardian"],"published":"2026-08-01","related":[{"cvss_score":6.9,"headline":"Atom-table exhaustion denial of service in Guardian via unbounded atom creation from binary keys","id":"CVE-2026-54894","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-01"},{"cvss_score":6.9,"headline":"Atom-table exhaustion denial of service in Guardian permissions AtomEncoding via unbounded atom creation","id":"CVE-2026-55733","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-01"},{"cvss_score":6.9,"headline":"guardian atom exhaustion in Guardian.Permissions.encode_permissions!/1","id":"CVE-2026-55734","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-01"}],"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":"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)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-08-03","vendors":["ueberauth"]},"summary":"An unauthenticated attacker can revoke victim sessions by submitting forged tokens to the Guardian.revoke/3 function, causing a denial of service.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-55735/"}
