How severe is CVE-2026-23519?

No CVSS score has been assigned to CVE-2026-23519 yet. Review the advisory details and affected package list to assess your exposure.

Which packages are affected by CVE-2026-23519?

CVE-2026-23519 affects the following packages: cmov (crates.io). Ecosystems affected: crates.io.

How do I fix CVE-2026-23519?

Update cmov to 0.4.4 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2026-23519 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect CVE-2026-23519 in my crates.io dependencies?

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

How do I mitigate CVE-2026-23519 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.

How does O3 Security protect against CVE-2026-23519?

O3 Security's impact-aware SCA analyses which vulnerable code paths your application actually calls, so a match like CVE-2026-23519 can be triaged on real exposure rather than presence alone.

Is CVE-2026-23519 actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for CVE-2026-23519 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-2026-23519?

CVE-2026-23519 has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 0.6%, placing it in the 46th 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-2026-23519?

CVE-2026-23519 is classified as CWE-208 (CWE-208), CWE-203 (CWE-203). These weakness types describe the underlying flaw category, which helps determine the potential impact and the right class of mitigation.

When was CVE-2026-23519 published, and has it been updated?

CVE-2026-23519 was published on January 15, 2026 and was last updated on August 12, 2026. Advisory data evolves as severity scores, affected ranges, and exploit intelligence are revised — always check the latest version of the advisory before acting.

Real-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects crates.io packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.

Description

RustCrypto CMOV provides conditional move CPU intrinsics which are guaranteed on major platforms to execute in constant-time and not be rewritten as branches by the compiler. Prior to 0.4.4, the thumbv6m-none-eabi (Cortex M0, M0+ and M1) compiler emits non-constant time assembly when using cmovnz (portable version). This vulnerability is fixed in 0.4.4.
