CVE-2026-49834 Details
Description
sigstore-go is a Go library for Sigstore signing and verification. Prior to 1.2.0, a verifier configured with WithTransparencyLog(N>1) or WithSignedCertificateTimestamps(N>1) counts verified witnesses per entry or per validation path rather than per log authority, allowing a single compromised transparency log or CT log to satisfy multi-log threshold requirements and defeat the multi-log policy. This issue is fixed in version 1.2.0.
A vulnerability in the Sigstore-go library, prior to version 1.2.0, allows a verifier to bypass multi-log policy requirements. When configured with 'WithTransparencyLog(N>1)' or 'WithSignedCertificateTimestamps(N>1)', the verifier incorrectly counted verified witnesses per entry instead of per log authority. This flaw meant that a single compromised transparency log could forge multiple entries, and a compromised Certificate Transparency (CT) log could verify multiple times, effectively satisfying multi-log threshold requirements and defeating the intended policy. This issue does not affect Cosign, as Cosign sets a threshold of 1.
Users should upgrade to Sigstore-go version 1.2.0 or later, where this vulnerability has been fixed.
