CVE-2026-32935 is an observable timing discrepancy in phpseclib AES-CBC padding validation. The library did not validate padding in constant time, making applications that use its AES implementation in CBC mode susceptible to a padding-oracle timing attack. Affected releases are phpseclib 1.0.26 and earlier, 2.0.0 through 2.0.51, and 3.0.0 through 3.0.49.
