When performing one-shot symmetric cipher operations on large inputs (over 64 KiB) in stateful modes such as Counter (CTR) or Cipher Block Chaining (CBC), the library improperly reuses the Initialization Vector (IV) for each internal data chunk. A remote attacker could potentially exploit this by making an application that uses libkcapi process specially crafted large inputs. This can lead to a significant weakening of data confidentiality, as the repeated IV use can expose relationships in encrypted plaintext, and may also affect data integrity by causing incorrect cryptographic processing.","severity":{"version":"3.1","score":6.5,"vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:L/A:N","level":"medium","assessor":"cna","from":"cve"},"epss":{"day":"2026-11-11","score":0.00345,"percentile":0.28456,"model":"v2026.06.15"},"facts":{"in_kev":false,"known_exploited":false,"public_exploit":false,"fix_available":true},"cwes":["CWE-330"],"published":"2026-08-05T12:16:52Z","modified":"2026-11-03T02:47:28Z","fixes":[{"ecosystem":"Alpine:v3.21","package":"libkcapi","fixed_in":["1.5.1-r0"],"sources":["osv"]},{"ecosystem":"Alpine:v3.22","package":"libkcapi","fixed_in":["1.5.1-r0"],"sources":["osv"]},{"ecosystem":"Alpine:v3.23","package":"libkcapi","fixed_in":["1.5.1-r0"],"sources":["osv"]},{"ecosystem":"Alpine:v3.24","package":"libkcapi","fixed_in":["1.5.1-r0"],"sources":["osv"]},{"ecosystem":"Azure

When performing one-shot symmetric cipher operations on large inputs (over 64 KiB) in stateful modes such as Counter (CTR) or Cipher Block Chaining (CBC), the library improperly reuses the Initialization Vector (IV) for each internal data chunk. A remote attacker could potentially exploit this by making an application that uses libkcapi process specially crafted large inputs. This can lead to a significant weakening of data confidentiality, as the repeated IV use can expose relationships in encrypted plaintext, and may also affect data integrity by causing incorrect cryptographic processing.","status":"published","published":"2026-08-05T13:24:47Z","modified":"2026-09-10T14:16:58.905682639Z","updated_at":"2026-11-02T15:28:12.028669Z"},{"id":"CLSA-2026-1786699908","title":"libkcapi: Fix of 3 CVEs","description":"- CVE-2026-71225: stop resending ALG_SET_IV for every 64 KiB chunk of a\n  one-shot symmetric cipher operation, which reused the IV in CTR and CBC\n- CVE-2026-71226: reap all submitted AIO requests before returning an error\n  so the kernel cannot write into output buffers the caller has released\n- CVE-2026-71227: report a zero io_getevents() return as -ETIMEDOUT so\n  _kcapi_aio_read_all() cannot spin forever on a reused AIO handle","status":"published","published":"2026-08-14T09:31:59Z","modified":"2026-10-26T09:31:04.14161994Z","updated_at":"2026-11-02T15:43:47.20725Z"},{"id":"CLSA-2026-1786719033","title":"libkcapi: Fix of 3 CVEs","description":"- CVE-2026-71225: stop resending ALG_SET_IV for every 64 KiB chunk of a\n  one-shot symmetric cipher operation, which reused the IV in CTR and CBC\n- CVE-2026-71226: reap all submitted AIO requests before returning an error\n  so the kernel cannot write into output buffers the caller has released\n- CVE-2026-71227: report a zero io_getevents() return as -ETIMEDOUT so\n  _kcapi_aio_read_all() cannot spin forever on a reused AIO handle","status":"published","published":"2026-08-14T14:50:46Z","modified":"2026-10-26T09:30:35.201248912Z","updated_at":"2026-11-02T15:43:47.20725Z"}]}}
