CVSS 9.1 (critical) · published 2026-10-02
Improper input validation in DHAgreement.CalculateAgreement (MTI/A0 two-pass Diffie-Hellman) in Legion of the Bouncy Castle Inc. bc-csharp before 2.7.0 allows an on-path attacker to make the local party compute an agreed value the attacker already knows, defeating the key authentication MTI/A0 is meant to provide. It also allows a malicious peer to learn the local static private key modulo the small factors of p-1, and to recover it entirely in groups with many such factors. The attack uses a crafted out-of-range or small-order ephemeral value, and works because that value is raised to the static private key without the range and subgroup-membership checks applied to DH public keys. Only applications that call DHAgreement directly are affected.
