CVE-2026-15999NVD
Vulnerability Summary
Improper validation of integrity check value in the AES-CCM implementation (CcmParameters and CcmBlockCipher) in Legion of the Bouncy Castle Inc. bc-csharp before 2.7.0 allows an on-path attacker to modify CCM-encrypted content without detection via an AlgorithmIdentifier whose CCMParameters declare an authentication tag (aes-ICVlen) of zero or another length outside the RFC 5084 set, because CcmParameters accepted any value and CcmBlockCipher validated the tag length only when encrypting, so decryption compared a zero-length or very short tag. Affected paths include ParameterUtilities.GetCipherParameters, used by CmsEnvelopedData and CmsEnvelopedDataParser for EnvelopedData encrypted with AES-CCM, and any caller passing an unchecked tag length to CcmBlockCipher for decryption.
