DescriptionCVE.org

Cloud Foundry UAA versions v76.12.0 through v78.12.0 are vulnerable to a private key exposure. The server contains a vulnerability where EC (Elliptic Curve) private keys are inadvertently exposed through the public /token_keys endpoint. This endpoint is designed to provide public key material for JWT token verification but incorrectly exposes private key components for EC keys. The vulnerability affects deployments using EC keys for JWT token signing. The vulnerability does not affect RSA key configurations, only deployments using EC keys for JWT signing.

Affected versions:

  • uaa_release: v76.12.0 through v78.12.0 (inclusive); fixed in v78.13.0 or later
  • CF Deployment: v30.0.0 through v56.0.0 (inclusive); fixed in v56.1.0 or later (bundles uaa_release v78.13.0)

AnalysisAI

Private key disclosure in Cloud Foundry UAA versions v76.12.0 through v78.12.0 allows unauthenticated remote attackers to retrieve Elliptic Curve (EC) private key material from the public /token_keys endpoint, which is supposed to expose only public verification keys. With the leaked private keys, attackers can forge arbitrary JWTs and impersonate any UAA-authenticated identity across the platform. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The target must be a Cloud Foundry UAA instance running uaa_release v76.12.0-v78.12.0 (or cf-deployment v30.0.0-v56.0.0) AND configured to use EC (Elliptic Curve) keys for JWT token signing - RSA-signed deployments are not affected, which is a meaningful limiter because RSA is the historical default. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment Signals are consistent and severe: CVSS 3.1 vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:L describes a network-reachable, no-auth, no-interaction flaw with scope change, which fits exactly - the leaked key compromises every resource server that trusts UAA-signed JWTs, not just UAA itself. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An unauthenticated attacker on the network discovers an affected UAA instance, issues a single HTTP GET to https://<uaa-host>/token_keys, and parses the returned JWK Set to extract the EC private key's 'd' parameter. Using that private key, the attacker mints a JWT impersonating any user or client (including platform admins) with arbitrary scopes and presents it to any service in the foundation that trusts UAA-signed tokens, achieving full platform compromise. …
Remediation Vendor-released patch: upgrade uaa_release to v78.13.0 or later, or upgrade cf-deployment to v56.1.0 or later (which bundles the fixed UAA), per https://www.cloudfoundry.org/blog/cve-2026-40965-uaa-ec-private-key-disclosure/. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours: Identify all Cloud Foundry UAA instances running versions v76.12.0 through v78.12.0; implement network access controls restricting the /token_keys endpoint to authorized internal services only; enable detailed logging of all /token_keys endpoint requests. …
