CVE-2026-47775 is a medium-severity vulnerability in Envoyproxy Envoy with a CVSS 3.x base score of 6.8. It is not currently listed as actively exploited by CISA, and its EPSS exploit-prediction score is low. The underlying weakness is classified as CWE-209.

Key facts

Description

Envoy is an open source edge and service proxy designed for cloud-native applications. Prior to 1.35.11, 1.36.7, 1.37.3, and 1.38.1, the OAuth2 HTTP filter's encrypt()/decrypt() functions use AES-256-CBC without an authentication tag (no HMAC, no AEAD). The /callback endpoint returns HTTP 302 on successful decryption and HTTP 401 on padding failure, creating a padding oracle. An attacker who obtains the encrypted CodeVerifier cookie can recover the plaintext PKCE code_verifier in ~6,200 requests (~100 seconds), then exchange it with a stolen authorization code to obtain the victim's access token. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.35.11, 1.36.7, 1.37.3, and 1.38.1.
