CVE-2026-6091

Partial-chain certificate verification may accept chains that terminate at a peer-supplied, untrusted intermediate certificate rather than a trusted anchor. An attacker could present a chain that ends at an intermediate they control and have it accepted as valid. This affects the OpenSSL...

CVE-2026-6091 Partial-chain verification accepts untrusted intermediate as trust anchor

Partial-chain certificate verification may accept chains that terminate at a peer-supplied, untrusted intermediate certificate rather than a trusted anchor. An attacker could present a chain that ends at an intermediate they control and have it accepted as valid. This affects the OpenSSL...

CVE-2026-6091

Partial-chain certificate verification may accept chains that terminate at a peer-supplied, untrusted intermediate certificate rather than a trusted anchor. The vulnerability affects the wolfSSL OpenSSL compatibility certificate-path-building path (wolfSSL_X509_verify_cert / X509_STORE, OPENSSL_E...

CVE-2026-5501

wolfSSLX509verifycert in the OpenSSL compatibility layer accepts a certificate chain in which the leaf's signature is not checked, if the attacker supplies an untrusted intermediate with Basic Constraints CA:FALSE that is legitimately signed by a trusted root. An attacker who obtains any leaf...

Improper Certificate Validation

Overview Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Certificate Validation in the wolfSSLX509verifycert function. An attacker can bypass certificate signature validation by supplying a certificate chain where an untrusted intermediate with Basic Constraints set to CA:FALSE is...

UBUNTU-CVE-2026-5501

wolfSSLX509verifycert in the OpenSSL compatibility layer accepts a certificate chain in which the leaf's signature is not checked, if the attacker supplies an untrusted intermediate with Basic Constraints CA:FALSE that is legitimately signed by a trusted root. An attacker who obtains any leaf...

CVE-2026-5501

CVE-2026-5501 involves wolfSSL’s X509_verify_cert in the OpenSSL compatibility layer. The vulnerability arises when a certificate chain is presented where the leaf’s signature is not checked if an untrusted intermediate (CA:FALSE) signed by a trusted root is supplied. An attacker with any leaf ce...
