CVE-2026-119188— Forge: Denial of service in TLS record processing via a record interleaved with a fragmented handshake message

Exploitation
No confirmed in-the-wild exploitation; assess based on exposure
Recommended action
Check the vendor advisory and references for a fixed version. If immediate upgrade is impossible, restrict exposure and increase monitoring.

Forge（也称为 node-forge）是用 JavaScript 原生实现的传输层安全（TLS）库。在 1.4.1 版本之前，受影响的实现在调用 时，若遇到分片化的握手消息，会通过交错记录（interleaved record）的方式处理相关输入或安全决策。然而，当另一个内容类型的 TLS 记录中断了正在进行的分片化握手消息时，node-forge 仍会继续处理。这使得远程对等方能够触发 函数中未捕获的 TypeError，进而导致连接或宿主进程失败。该问题已在 1.4.1 版本中修复。

Vulnerability Title
Forge: Denial of service in TLS record processing via a record interleaved with a fragmented handshake message
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
Forge (also called node-forge) is a native implementation of Transport Layer Security in JavaScript. Prior to 1.4.1, the affected implementation used forge.tls.createConnection(), fragmented handshake message, interleaved record to process the relevant input or security decision. node-forge continued processing after a TLS record of another content type interrupted a fragmented handshake message. A remote peer could trigger an uncaught TypeError in process(), causing the connection or hosting process to fail. This issue is fixed in version 1.4.1.
