`CVE-2026-19611`

7.4 High No exploit published

Published 26 days ago. NVD backfills CPE data for days or weeks after publication, and OSV and the exploit indexes lag too. Scope and status here may change.

Description

A flaw was found in WildFly Elytron. Password hashing and verification normalize input with Unicode NFKC, which can collapse fullwidth characters to ASCII equivalents. A remote attacker can more easily guess affected passwords by using an ASCII-only dictionary against accounts whose passwords were intended to include those non-ASCII characters, leading to unauthorized access.

CWE-173

Exploitation Status

No public exploit

Nothing published shows this CVE being exploited, which is not the same as ruling it out.

CVSS E:U

CISA KEV not listed
CISA Vulnrichment exploitation: none
Indexed PoC none indexed
EPSS 0.34% chance in 30 days

Waratek Defense Posture

No exploit published

In RASP's scope with an upstream fix path, but nobody has published a working exploit. That is a statement about what has been published, not a finding that the defect is unreachable or unimportant.

Protection none
Action unverified patch rule
Review automated upstream-data
Record active

Decided by no-exploit-published : A published working exploit for this candidate, not only a proof of concept, a forecast, or nothing at all

Finding This CVE is not listed in CISA KEV, CISA Vulnrichment records no active exploitation, and no reviewed exploit catalogue carries an entry for it. Nobody has published something a stranger can run, so it is not a candidate for a rule ahead of the ones where somebody has; an upstream fix path does exist, so the remediation half of the candidacy still holds. This is a statement about what has been published, not about whether the defect is reachable or serious.

CVSS

7.4 HIGH v3.1 CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N 1 metric

VRT selects the newest version's highest entry and publishes it as cvssScore, newest rather than largest because scores are not comparable across versions, and highest rather than first because the first entry is frequently a CNA placeholder scoring 0.0 over NVD's own analysis.

Pipeline policy audit (18 of 21 rules evaluated)

18 of 21 rules ran. The rest were never reached, because an earlier stage settled the CVE, a distinct claim from a rule that ran and found nothing.

# Rule Outcome Status Detail

identity: Does this identifier describe a vulnerability at all? first match wins

1 rejected no-match CVE Program withdrawal of this identifier

scope: Is the vulnerability ARMR's to address? first match wins

2 armr-patch-file no-match An ARMR patch file on disk for this CVE

3 armr-secure-rule-file no-match An ARMR security-rule template on disk for this CVE

4 manual-classification no-match A researcher's recorded decision for this specific CVE

5 manual classification no-match Manual classification of this CVE in the legacy dataset

6 non-java-upstream no-match A root cause in non-Java code: an OS kernel, a C library, or a bundled runtime

7 oracle-component no-match The defect being in a component of a tracked product the agent does not reach: JavaFX, the Java SE installer, the native WebLogic proxy plug-in. Oracle gives these no CPE of their own and names them only in the description.

8 osv-maven no-match An OSV.dev record of this CVE affecting a package published to Maven Central

9 cna-maven-package no-match An affected Maven artifact named by the CNA itself

10 known-cpe-product no-match An NVD CPE naming a product ARMR tracks

11 cna-cpe-product matched Queued for review cvelistV5 CPEs match known products: redhat/build_keycloak, redhat/jboss_data_grid, redhat/jboss_enterprise_application_platform, redhat/red_hat_single_sign_on

12 oracle-advisory-family not-reached A tracked product family named in Oracle's own risk matrix. CPE cannot carry a suite name, only a module.

13 non-deployable-product not-reached The only affected product being a sealed appliance image, where Java runs but no -javaagent can be attached

14 unmatched-product not-reached No tracked product matched above, and none present at all

disposition: What do we do about one that is? cumulative: every rule gets a turn

15 patch-hint matched Mitigation candidate References include candidate fix URL (bugzilla tier): https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2514568

16 open-source-maven skipped The affected package being open source on Maven, so the fix can be read

17 poc-derivable skipped An indexed exploit to reverse-engineer, where there is no source to read

18 no-exploit skipped With no fix path, a public exploit, or a CISA record of one

19 secure-rule-match no-match A vulnerability class already blocked by an ARMR security rule

20 below-action-threshold no-match Severity is HIGH — only MEDIUM/LOW are deprioritized

21 no-exploit-published decided it matched No exploit published No working exploit has been published, and an upstream fix path does exist, so the remediation half of the candidacy still holds.
