Summary
CVE-2026-59099 is a critical-severity Reusing a Nonce, Key Pair in Encryption (CWE-323) vulnerability in Github (inferred from references). Its CVSS base score is 9.3 (Critical).
Operationally, ranked at the 45th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SA-11 (Developer Testing and Evaluation) and SA-8 (Security and Privacy Engineering Principles) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Vulnerability Data
Apereo CAS 7.3.0 before 8.0.0-RC6 contains a cryptographic vulnerability that allows remote unauthenticated attackers to recover plaintext conversation state by exploiting AES-GCM initialization vector reuse across the server lifetime. Attackers can collect multiple client-side webflow execution tokens from the unauthenticated…

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Developer testing and evaluation can discover nonce reuse through static analysis, fuzzing, or known-answer tests.
Engineering principles include correct use of cryptographic primitives such as unique nonces per key.
Selecting and implementing appropriate cryptographic algorithms and modes reduces nonce-reuse exposure.

Mandates proper cryptographic key and nonce management, directly preventing nonce/key-pair reuse.
Secure-coding rules can require unique nonces, but the control is broader than this single weakness.
Security testing can detect nonce reuse, yet the control addresses many other issues beyond this CWE.
