Apache Jackrabbit 2.20–2.23 releases are affected by a critical pre-auth WebDAV session hijack and a medium DavEx client class-loading flaw.

Apache disclosed two Jackrabbit WebDAV issues on 2026-10-07. CVE-2026-92414 is a pre-authentication session-fixation and session-reuse flaw that can let an unauthenticated attacker hijack cached authenticated sessions through derivable WebDAV lock tokens; it is rated CVSS 4.0 9.3 with high confidentiality and integrity impact, and the notice does not report exploitation in the wild. CVE-2026-92415 affects the DavEx client: a malicious DavEx server, or an attacker who can influence error responses, can cause the client to run Class.forName and a String constructor on server-controlled error bodies. That issue is rated CVSS 4.0 6.9 with low integrity impact only. Both flaws affect the same ranges: 2.20.0–2.20.17, 2.22.0–2.22.4, and 2.23.0–2.23.5. The two reports cover different CVEs and do not contradict each other.
