A metaprogram can first cause the kernel to create a temporary local of type False and record its type in the type checker's inference cache, then restore the local context while that cache entry persists on the same type checker instance, and finally submit an opaque declaration whose value is the now-unbound variable. The cache lookup answers before the branch that would test membership of the local context, so the kernel infers the cached type and admits an opaque constant of type False, from which any proposition follows. The declaration is accepted through the ordinary checked path at maximum kernel checking, without sorry, unsafeCast, debug.skipKernelTC, addDeclWithoutChecking, foreign code or a modified .olean file, and the result carries no axioms. Fixed in 4.32.2 by adding the missing closure check.","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-08-24T20:08:33.219+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-10-26T01:23:57.37+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"Vendor product","name":"lean4","ranges":[],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":"{\n                    \"vendor\": \"leanprover\",\n                    \"product\": \"lean4\",\n                    \"repo\": \"https://github.com/leanprover/lean4\",\n                    \"packageURL\": \"pkg:github/leanprover/lean4\",\n                    \"defaultStatus\": \"unaffected\",\n                    \"versions\": [\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"0\",\n                            \"lessThan\": \"4.32.2\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\",\n                            \"versionType\": \"semver\"\n                        }\n                    ]\n                }"}],"metrics":[{"system":"CVSS 4.0","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:P/VC:N/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","score":6.8,"severity":"MEDIUM"},{"system":"CVSS 3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:N/I:H/A:N","score":6.3,"severity":"MEDIUM"}],"references":["https://github.com/leanprover/lean4","https://github.com/leanprover/lean4/issues/14484","https://github.com/leanprover/lean4/pull/14498","https://github.com/endrazine/lean-cve-poc-14484","https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/lean-4-before-kernel-accepts-opaque-declaration-with-an-unbound-free-variable"],"sourceUrl":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-72711","license":"CVE Program Terms of Use","key":"cve-program:CVE-2026-72711","identifiers":["CVE-2026-72711"]},"retained":false,"historicalAffected":[]}],"coverage":[{"source":"cisa-kev:global","scope":"Complete CISA KEV catalog; all vendors.
