CVE-2026-41000 Spring CVE debrief

CVE-2026-41000 is a vulnerability in the Wss4jSecurityInterceptor of Spring Web Services. The interceptor did not consistently wire Apache WSS4J ReplayCache instances into RequestData for validation-time checks. This could make protections against replay of UsernameToken nonces and creation timestamps, Timestamp elements, and certain SAML one-time-use semantics ineffective, even when operators configured a replay cache on the interceptor.
