Log injection in Apache CXF's OAuth2 module (org.apache.cxf:cxf-rt-rs-security-oauth2) permits remote attackers to forge arbitrary log entries by supplying crafted clientId values containing control characters or newline sequences in OAuth2 HTTP requests. Affected are CXF 4.2.0-4.2.1 and all 4.1.x versions before 4.1.7; fixed releases 4.2.2 and 4.1.7 were issued June 10, 2026. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires that the target Apache CXF deployment includes the `cxf-rt-rs-security-oauth2` module and exposes an active OAuth2 server endpoint reachable by the attacker. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The vendor classifies this as Low severity, which is appropriate given that the sole exploitable impact is log file integrity - no code execution, data exfiltration, or service disruption is achievable. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An unauthenticated remote attacker sends an OAuth2 authorization or token request to the CXF server with a `clientId` value such as `legitimate-client\nWARN 2026-06-11 00:00:00 Successful admin login from 10.0.0.1`. The server logs this clientId verbatim as part of a warning message, causing the injected text to appear as a distinct, legitimate-looking log entry. … |
| Remediation | Upgrade to Apache CXF 4.2.2 if running any 4.2.x build, or to 4.1.7 if running any 4.1.x build; both releases were made available June 10, 2026, and are downloadable from https://cxf.apache.org/. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
