In sealed-env enterprise mode, versions 0.1.0-alpha.1 through 0.1.0-alpha.3 embedded the operator's literal TOTP secret in the JWS payload of every minted unseal token. JWS payload is base64-encoded JSON, NOT encrypted. Any party who could observe a minted token (CI build logs, container env dumps, kubectl describe pod, Sentry/Rollbar stack traces, log aggregators) could decode the payload and extract the TOTP secret in plaintext. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.1.0-alpha.4.","published":"2026-05-12T13:20:21.560Z","modified":"2026-08-07T21:13:16.609993Z","cvss":{"score":9.1,"severity":"CRITICAL","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N"},"epss":{"score":0.00326,"percentile":0.25126,"asOf":"2026-08-09"},"cisaKev":null,"exploitsKnown":0,"affectedPackages":[{"ecosystem":"Maven","name":"io.github.davidalmeidac:sealed-env-core","fixedVersion":"0.1.0-alpha.4"},{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"sealed-env","fixedVersion":"0.1.0-alpha.4"}],"fix":null,"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/45xxx/CVE-2026-45091.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/davidalmeidac/sealed-env/security/advisories/GHSA-x3r2-fj3r-g5mv"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-45091"}],"provenance":{"sources":["OSV.dev","FIRST.org (EPSS)"],"lastVerified":"2026-08-07T21:13:16.609993Z"}}
