Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for github.com/juju/juju, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

How do I mitigate CVE-2026-1237 if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.

Is CVE-2026-1237 actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for CVE-2026-1237 yet. This does not mean the vulnerability cannot be exploited — absence of public exploits does not imply safety. Apply the recommended fix and use O3 Security to monitor your exposure.

What is the EPSS score for CVE-2026-1237?

CVE-2026-1237 has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 0.1%, placing it in the 4th percentile of all CVEs. EPSS is maintained by FIRST.org and estimates the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited in the wild within the next 30 days. This score indicates relatively lower exploitation probability, though the CVSS severity should still guide your patching priority.

What type of vulnerability is CVE-2026-1237?

CVE-2026-1237 is classified as CWE-347 (CWE-347), CWE-672 (CWE-672). These weakness types describe the underlying flaw category, which helps determine the potential impact and the right class of mitigation.

When was CVE-2026-1237 published, and has it been updated?

CVE-2026-1237 was published on January 28, 2026 and was last updated on October 28, 2026. Advisory data evolves as severity scores, affected ranges, and exploit intelligence are revised — always check the latest version of the advisory before acting.

Description

Impact

Cross-model Relation authorization is broken and has a potential security vulnerability. If the controller does not have the root key to verify the macaroon (or if the macaroon has expired), an unvalidated and therefore untrusted macaroon is used to extract declared caveats. Facts from these caveats are then blindly used to mint a new macaroon that becomes valid.

Scenario

A user knows that user X has access to offer Y. The user mints a macaroon stating that user X has access to offer Y and sends it to the controller in a request. The controller fails to verify the macaroon because it lacks the root key and mints a new macaroon requiring proof that user X has access to offer Y. Since user X does have access and the discharge endpoint does not require authentication, the controller returns the new macaroon. The user can then use the returned macaroon to consume the offer as user X.

Patches

N/A

Workarounds

A previous proposal via this PR addresses the issue but would break model migrations since macaroon root keys are not included in model descriptions. Additionally, root keys are not model-scoped, making it unclear which keys to transfer during migration.
