CVE-2026-81699— openssl_encrypt before 1.4.9 Denial of Service via unbounded KDF cost
Quick assessment
Affected
jahlives openssl_encrypt
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 1.4.9 之前版本的 中，系统未能正确验证精心构造文件中的密钥派生函数（KDF）成本参数。这使得攻击者能够在预认证阶段触发无界的内存和 CPU 资源耗尽。攻击者可以通过提供包含过量 KDF 参数的恶意文件来耗尽系统资源，从而在密码验证发生之前导致进程崩溃或卡死。

Vulnerability Title
openssl_encrypt before 1.4.9 Denial of Service via unbounded KDF cost
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
openssl_encrypt versions before 1.4.9 fail to properly validate key derivation function costs in crafted files, allowing attackers to trigger unbounded memory and CPU exhaustion during pre-authentication processing. Attackers can supply malicious files with excessive KDF parameters to exhaust system resources and crash or wedge the process before password verification occurs.
