An operator who confirms a short (forgeable, ~32-bit) GPG key id could unknowingly enroll an attacker's colliding key as a trusted anchor, which then vouches for malicious plugins under the ENFORCE signature policy. Version 1.4.9 fixes this by requiring the confirmed value to exactly match the full primary-key fingerprint (case-insensitive, whitespace-stripped).","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-08-27T14:51:09.904+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-10-01T15:21:35.038+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"Vendor product","name":"openssl_encrypt","ranges":[],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":"{\n                    \"vendor\": \"jahlives\",\n                    \"product\": \"openssl_encrypt\",\n                    \"defaultStatus\": \"unaffected\",\n                    \"packageURL\": \"pkg:pypi/openssl-encrypt\",\n                    \"versions\": [\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"0\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\",\n                            \"versionType\": \"semver\",\n                            \"lessThan\": \"1.4.9\"\n                        },\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"1.4.9\",\n                            \"status\": \"unaffected\",\n                            \"versionType\": \"semver\"\n                        }\n                    ]\n                }"}],"metrics":[{"system":"CVSS 4.0","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","score":9.3,"severity":"CRITICAL"},{"system":"CVSS 3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":7,"severity":"HIGH"}],"references":["https://github.com/jahlives/openssl_encrypt/security/advisories/GHSA-xg52-638v-jc5m","https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/openssl-encrypt-before-1.4.9-plugin-signing-trust-anchor-enrollment-bypass"],"sourceUrl":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-81714","license":"CVE Program Terms of Use","key":"cve-program:CVE-2026-81714","identifiers":["CVE-2026-81714"]},"retained":false,"historicalAffected":[]}],"coverage":[]}
