Prior to 2.1.4, the CipherEngine uses a standard equality operator (!==) to verify the HMAC-SHA256 integrity seal during the decryption phase. This creates an Observable Timing Discrepancy (CWE-208), allowing a potential attacker to bypass the file integrity check via a timing attack. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.1.4.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N","score":4.7},"cwes":["CWE-208"],"references":["https://github.com/notamitgamer/mojic/security/advisories/GHSA-wqq3-wfmp-v85g","https://github.com/notamitgamer/mojic/security/advisories/GHSA-wqq3-wfmp-v85g"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-26T21:38:48.864438205+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-41244","score":0.00108,"percentile":0.01199,"date":"2026-10-26"},"kev":null,"osv":[{"id":"GHSA-wqq3-wfmp-v85g","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-wqq3-wfmp-v85g","summary":"Mojic: Observable Timing Discrepancy in HMAC Verification","modified":"2026-05-05T16:26:32.772531Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"mojic","purl":"pkg:npm/mojic","ranges":["<2.1.4"],"fixed":["2.1.4"]}]}],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
