CVE-2026-58252 is an authorization flaw in NATS Server affecting versions prior to 2.14.0, 2.12.7, and 2.11.16. An authenticated user can receive messages on subjects that should be denied when a wildcard subscription overlaps with a configured wildcard deny rule but is not a strict subset of that deny rule. The flaw also affects queue subscription behavior, where the incorrect handling of overlapping wildcard authorization rules can influence message delivery to legitimate queue consumers. The vulnerability results from improper enforcement of subject-based access restrictions in the presence of wildcard matching logic.
