Summary

CoreWCF: WS-Security Reference DigestMethod Algorithm-Suite Bypass

Details

Impact

CoreWCF’s WS-Security 1.0 receive pipeline validates the SignatureMethod of an incoming ds:SignedInfo against the configured SecurityAlgorithmSuite, but does not validate the DigestMethod declared on each ds:Reference. As a result, a sender can populate ds:SignedInfo with SignatureMethod values the suite accepts (for example rsa-sha256 under Basic256Sha256) while declaring a per-reference DigestMethod the suite rejects (for example http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#sha1). The signature is then verified where it permits SHA-1 digests, and the message is accepted.

Patches

Fixed in CoreWCF v1.8.1 and v1.9.1

Workarounds

None

Severity

CVE-2026-54780 (GCVE-0-2026-54780)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-07-08 22:15 – Updated: 2026-07-09 19:21

Title

CoreWCF: WS-Security Reference DigestMethod Algorithm-Suite Bypass

Summary

CoreWCF is a port of the service side of Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) to .NET Core. Prior to 1.8.1 and 1.9.1, the CoreWCF WS-Security 1.0 receive pipeline validates ds:SignedInfo SignatureMethod against the configured SecurityAlgorithmSuite but does not validate each ds:Reference DigestMethod, allowing a sender to use a rejected digest algorithm such as SHA-1 while the message is still accepted. This issue is fixed in versions 1.8.1 and 1.9.1.

Severity

3.7 (Low)
