What is CVE-2026-42333?

The Quarkus OpenAPI Generator contains an improper authentication vulnerability where the authentication filter overly broadens its match for OpenAPI path templates. This allows authentication credentials, such as bearer tokens or API keys, associated with one operation to be mistakenly applied to different endpoints that only partially match the path. Consequently, this poses a risk of exposing sensitive data to unintended services. The vulnerability has been addressed in the updated versions 2.11.1-lts, 2.16.0-lts, and 2.17.0.

Affected Version(s)

quarkus-openapi-generator < 2.11.1-lts < 2.11.1-lts

quarkus-openapi-generator < 2.16.0-lts < 2.16.0-lts
