Vulnerability Details

CVEID:CVE-2021-3450
**DESCRIPTION:**OpenSSL could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by a missing check in the validation logic of X.509 certificate chains by the X509_V_FLAG_X509_STRICT flag. By using any valid certificate or certificate chain to sign a specially crafted certificate, an attacker could bypass the check that non-CA certificates must not be able to issue other certificates and override the default purpose.
CVSS Base score: 7.4
