CVE-2026-40968 (GCVE-0-2026-40968)

Title
Spring gRPC SecurityContext leaks across requests on authorization failure
Summary
When an authenticated user is denied access to a gRPC method, their authenticated identity remains bound to the gRPC worker thread and can be inherited by a subsequent unauthenticated request on the same thread. This may allow the subsequent user to gain escalated permissions. Affected versions: Spring gRPC: 1.0.0 - 1.0.2 (fixed in 1.0.3). Older, unsupported versions are also affected.

CVE-2026-40968 (GCVE-0-2026-40968)

Title
Spring gRPC SecurityContext leaks across requests on authorization failure
Summary
When an authenticated user is denied access to a gRPC method, their authenticated identity remains bound to the gRPC worker thread and can be inherited by a subsequent unauthenticated request on the same thread. This may allow the subsequent user to gain escalated permissions. Affected versions: Spring gRPC: 1.0.0 - 1.0.2 (fixed in 1.0.3). Older, unsupported versions are also affected.
Severity
4.3 (Medium)
