CoreWCF is a port of the service side of Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) to .NET Core. Prior to 1.8.1 and 1.9.1, a CoreWCF service hosted on Unix Domain Sockets with PosixIdentity client credentials can accept connections that skip the application/unixposix stream upgrade before dispatching messages, bypassing framing-layer identity checks in UnixPosixIdentitySecurityUpgradeProvider. This issue is fixed in versions 1.8.1 and 1.9.1.
CVE-2026-54776
This medium-severity CVE scores 4.4 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.1%, top 99% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).
- Lower severity and no public exploit yet
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.
