CVE-2026-15999— AES-CCM decryption accepts zero or out-of-range tag length, bypassing authentication

Quick assessment

Affected
Legion of the Bouncy Castle Inc. bc-csharp
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.

在 Legion of the Bouncy Castle Inc. 发布的 bc-csharp 版本 2.7.0 之前，AES-CCM 实现（包括 CcmParameters 和 CcmBlockCipher）中对完整性检查值的验证存在缺陷。攻击者若能位于通信路径上（on-path attacker），可通过构造一个 AlgorithmIdentifier，使其中的 CCMParameters 声明的认证标签长度（aes-ICVlen）为 0，或为 RFC 5084 规定范围之外的其他非法长度，从而在不被检测到的

Vulnerability Title
AES-CCM decryption accepts zero or out-of-range tag length, bypassing authentication
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
Improper validation of integrity check value in the AES-CCM implementation (CcmParameters and CcmBlockCipher) in Legion of the Bouncy Castle Inc. bc-csharp before 2.7.0 allows an on-path attacker to modify CCM-encrypted content without detection via an AlgorithmIdentifier whose CCMParameters declare an authentication tag (aes-ICVlen) of zero or another length outside the RFC 5084 set, because CcmParameters accepted any value and CcmBlockCipher validated the tag length only when encrypting, so decryption compared a zero-length or very short tag. Affected paths include ParameterUtilities.GetCipherParameters, used by CmsEnvelopedData and CmsEnvelopedDataParser for EnvelopedData encrypted with AES-CCM, and any caller passing an unchecked tag length to CcmBlockCipher for decryption.
