Vulnerability in CoreWCF.Primitives (CVE-2026-54784)
Summary
Vulnerability in CoreWCF.Primitives (CVE-2026-54784). Confidential information can be exposed externally. Mitigation: upgrade to 1.9.1 or later.
Original description
The description as published by the source.
Impact
When the proof key recovered from the RSTR can be observed by a party that is not the legitimate client, that party can impersonate the authenticated Windows principal for the lifetime of the SCT (default ~10 hours) and decrypt or forge any subsequent WS‑SecureConversation traffic that uses keys derived from the SCT.
Preconditions
Using security mode TransportWithMessageCredential with client credential type Windows, along with session establishment (which triggers use of WS-SecureConversation).
Patches
Fixed in CoreWCF v1.9.1
Workarounds
Ensure communication is protected by SSL/TLS to prevent capturing of SCT negotiation handshake.
