CVE-2026-41000: Wss4jSecurityInterceptor did not consistently wire Apache WSS4J ReplayCache instances into RequestData for val

Routine

LOW 3.7REMOTEWATCHLISTUPGRADE

CVE-2026-41000 is a low-severity flaw (CVSS 3.7) affecting spring web services. Below: why it ranks where it does, which versions are affected, what to do, and the exact commands.

Wss4jSecurityInterceptor did not consistently wire Apache WSS4J ReplayCache instances into RequestData for validation-time checks. As a result, protections against replay of UsernameToken nonces and creation timestamps, Timestamp elements, and certain SAML one-time-use semantics could be ineffective even when operators configured a replay cache on the interceptor. Affected versions: Spring Web Services 5.0.0 through 5.0.1; 4.1.0 through 4.1.3; 4

broadcom spring web services UPGRADE

Affected: < 3.1.9 · >= 4.0.0 and < 4.0.19 · >= 4.1.0 and < 4.1.3.1 · >= 5.0.0 and < 5.0.1.1

Fixed in: 3.1.9, 4.0.19, 4.1.3.1, 5.0.1.1

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 4.0.0

1. Check installed version

apt-cache policy spring-web-services || rpm -q spring-web-services || spring-web-services --version

2. UPGRADE to 3.1.9 (Debian / Ubuntu)

sudo apt update && sudo apt install --only-upgrade spring-web-services

2. UPGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

sudo dnf upgrade spring-web-services

Note

Distros often backport fixes without changing the version number. Confirm with the distro advisory or changelog.

3. If no update is available yet, DOWNGRADE to a release before 4.0.0 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison spring-web-services sudo apt install spring-web-services=<VERSION_BEFORE_4.0.0> sudo apt-mark hold spring-web-services

3. If no update is available yet, DOWNGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

dnf --showduplicates list spring-web-services sudo dnf downgrade spring-web-services-<VERSION_BEFORE_4.0.0> sudo dnf versionlock add spring-web-services

Downgrade risk

Downgrading can break dependent software and may reopen older bugs. Read the distro advisory first and test on a non-production host.

After downgrade

Restart the service, and keep the package held until a fixed release ships.
