CVE-2026-89316 Details
Description
`LoadPublicKey` resolved an EC key's curve with an unchecked type assertion, `algToOptsMap[alg].(*ECDSAOptions)`. A JWK declaring `"kty":"EC"` together with a non-EC `"alg"` — which RFC 7517 §4.4 permits — reaches that assertion and **panics**.
A denial-of-service vulnerability has been identified in the Eclipse KeyPont Go library, specifically in versions prior to 1.0.0-rc4. The issue arises in the 'LoadPublicKey' function, where an unchecked type assertion leads to a process panic. This vulnerability is triggered when a JSON Web Key (JWK) declares 'kty' as 'EC' but includes a non-EC 'alg', a combination permitted by RFC 7517. The 'LoadPublicKey' function panics instead of handling the error gracefully, causing a process crash.
Users can upgrade to 'github.com/eclipse-keypont/gose' version 'v1.0.0-rc4' or later. Those still on 'github.com/ThalesGroup/gose' must change the module path to 'github.com/eclipse-keypont/gose', as the ThalesGroup version is deprecated and vulnerable.
