Summary

CVE-2026-107724 is a high-severity Improper Verification of Cryptographic Signature (CWE-347) vulnerability. Its CVSS base score is 7.4 (High).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Invalid Code Signature (T1036.001); ranked at the 12th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SC-13 (Cryptographic Protection) and SC-23 (Session Authenticity) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Vulnerability Data

fast-jwt provides fast JSON Web Token (JWT) implementation. In 6.2.4, fast-jwt can classify raw serialized public JWK or JWKS JSON as an HMAC secret because src/crypto.js performDetectPublicKeyAlgorithms treats non-PEM strings as symmetric key material. If HS256 is explicitly allowed or…

more

inferred, an attacker who knows the exact serialized public-key bytes can use those bytes as an HMAC key and create a token containing arbitrary claims that createVerifier accepts. Serialization ordering or whitespace differences can prevent exploitation, and applications using supported PEM keys with an asymmetric-only algorithm allowlist are not affected. This issue is fixed in version 6.3.0.

SC-13 Cryptographic Protection partial match

Requiring cryptographic protection mechanisms forces correct signature verification to be implemented for data protection.

SC-23 Session Authenticity partial match

Protecting session authenticity requires correct verification of cryptographic signatures or equivalent mechanisms.

SI-7 Software, Firmware, and Information Integrity partial match

Mandating integrity verification tools directly requires proper cryptographic signature checking to detect unauthorized changes.
