From 0.136.0 until 0.149.0, three openapi3filter decoder paths that were missed by the fix for GHSA-p6wj-qrr4-pgh5 lack a nil-items guard for legal OpenAPI 3.1 array schemas. An unauthenticated remote client can trigger a deterministic nil-pointer panic through an array query parameter, a deepObject query parameter containing an array property, or an application/x-www-form-urlencoded request body whose array property appears inside an allOf, anyOf, or oneOf subschema. The query and composed-body paths reach urlValuesDecoder.parseArray, while the deepObject path reaches buildResObj, and all pass a nil items schema into code that dereferences it. This issue is fixed in version 0.149.0.\n\n## Remediation\n\nRefer to the linked advisories for vendor-supplied fixes and affected version ranges.\n\n## Package advisory (CVE-2026-100353)\n\nAffected packages:\n\n- `github.com/getkin/kin-openapi >= 0.136.0, < 0.149.0`\n\nPatched in:\n\n- `github.com/getkin/kin-openapi 0.149.0`\n\nSource: https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-vrcc-3ch7-hppw\n\n## Vendor advisories\n\n- **RHSA-2026:82637** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Hardened Images · released 2026-10-14 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:82637)\n- **Red Hat VEX** · Important · affected: Red Hat Hardened Images · no fix planned: Red Hat Hardened Images · updated 2026-10-20 · [vex](https://security.access.redhat.com/data/csaf/v2/vex/2026/cve-2026-100353.json)\n- **RHSA-2026:85266** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Hardened Images · released 2026-10-19 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:85266)","depth":"twilight","depthScore":41,"depthScoreParts":{"impact":41.3,"likelihood":0.1,"exploitation":0,"ransomware":0},"changes":[]}
