CVE-2026-54780
LOWCoreWCF: WS-Security Reference DigestMethod Algorithm-Suite Bypass
Title source: cnaDescription
CoreWCF is a port of the service side of Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) to .NET Core. Prior to 1.8.1 and 1.9.1, the CoreWCF WS-Security 1.0 receive pipeline validates ds:SignedInfo SignatureMethod against the configured SecurityAlgorithmSuite but does not validate each ds:Reference DigestMethod, allowing a sender to use a rejected digest algorithm such as SHA-1 while the message is still accepted. This issue is fixed in versions 1.8.1 and 1.9.1.
