8.1 · HIGHOverview
CVE-2026-71308 is a high-severity vulnerability. It was published on August 18, 2026 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.1 (HIGH).
This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.1, rated HIGH. It can be exploited remotely over the network. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.
Technical Description
Lemur manages TLS certificate creation. From 0.5.0 until 1.9.3, certificate create, upload, and edit requests accepted replaces[] or replacements identifiers that AssociatedCertificateSchema resolved with fetch_objects without a CertificatePermission check. Assigning those objects to Certificate.replaces invoked an append listener that disabled the victim certificate notifications and marked it as replaced. The victim was then excluded from get_all_pending_reissue, and certificate_rotate could deploy the attacker certificate to endpoints serving the victim. An authenticated non-read-only user could target certificates for which the user had no ownership or role, suppress lifecycle automation, and cause fleet-wide TLS disruption or unauthorized substitution. The fix authorizes every referenced replacement certificate before mutation. This issue is fixed in version 1.9.3.
