Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for golang-github-tink-crypto-tink-go.

CVE-2026-109425[0]:
| Tink-go (tink-crypto/tink-go) through 2.8.0 contains an input-
| validation vulnerability where keyset.NewHandleWithNoSecrets() and
| ReadWithNoSecrets() skip the structural Validate() step before
| constructing a keyset.Handle, allowing malformed public or no-secret
| keysets that violate Tink's keyset invariants to be accepted.
| Attackers can supply a malformed keyset, such as one with an enabled
| public key lacking a valid primary key or a DESTROYED key with no
| KeyData, causing inconsistent downstream validation where functions
| like jwt.JWKSetFromPublicKeysetHandle() process the invalid handle
| and produce a JWK set, potentially misleading applications that rely
| on successful handle construction as proof of keyset integrity.
