AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Network-exploitable but AC:H due to race window timing; code possession is a prerequisite but not a privilege level; confidentiality high for unauthorized token issuance, integrity low, no availability impact.

2DescriptionCVE.org
A race condition in JCacheCodeDataProvider allows an attacker to redeem a single authorization code multiple times via concurrent requests, resulting in the issuance of multiple distinct, valid access tokens. Users are recommended to upgrade to versions 4.2.3, 4.1.8 or 3.6.12, which fix this issue.
AnalysisAI
Double-spending of OAuth2 authorization codes in Apache CXF's JCacheCodeDataProvider enables issuance of multiple valid access tokens from a single code. Concurrent requests to the token endpoint during the brief window between code validation and invalidation exploit the TOCTOU race condition (CWE-367), allowing an attacker in possession of a valid authorization code to obtain additional access tokens beyond the one they are entitled to. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires that the Apache CXF instance be configured as an OAuth2 authorization server using JCacheCodeDataProvider as the authorization code store - deployments using alternative code providers (e.g., database-backed providers) are not affected. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | No NVD CVSS score has been assigned at time of analysis; the following assessment is independently derived. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | Upgrade to Apache CXF 4.2.3, 4.1.8, or 3.6.12, which resolve the race condition by making authorization code redemption atomic. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
