CVE-2026-5778

Integer underflow in wolfSSL packet sniffer = 5.9.0 allows an attacker to cause a program crash in the AEAD decryption path by injecting a TLS record shorter than the explicit IV plus authentication tag into traffic inspected by sslDecodePacket. The underflow wraps a 16-bit length to a large valu...

CVE-2026-5446

In wolfSSL, ARIA-GCM cipher suites used in TLS 1.2 and DTLS 1.2 reuse an identical 12-byte GCM nonce for every application-data record. Because wcAriaEncrypt is stateless and passes the caller-supplied IV verbatim to the MagicCrypto SDK with no internal counter, and because the explicit IV is...

CVE-2026-5460

A heap use-after-free exists in wolfSSL's TLS 1.3 post-quantum cryptography PQC hybrid KeyShare processing. In the error handling path of TLSXKeyShareProcessPqcHybridClient in src/tls.c, the inner function TLSXKeyShareProcessPqcClientex frees a KyberKey object upon encountering an error. The call...

CVE-2026-5393

Dual-Algorithm CertificateVerify out-of-bounds read. When processing a dual-algorithm CertificateVerify message, an out-of-bounds read can occur on crafted input. This can only occur when --enable-experimental and --enable-dual-alg-certs is used when building wolfSSL...

CVE-2026-5500

wolfSSL's wcPKCS7DecodeAuthEnvelopedData does not properly sanitize the AES-GCM authentication tag length received and has no lower bounds check. A man-in-the-middle can therefore truncate the mac field from 16 bytes to 1 byte, reducing the tag check from 2⁻¹²⁸ to 2⁻⁸...

curl: TLS verifyhost bypass in rustls, mbedTLS, and wolfSSL when verifypeer=0

The now-well-known CURLOPTSSLVERIFYHOST-bypass-when-CURLOPTSSLVERIFYPEER=0 defect exists in three of curl's TLS backends: rustls EXPERIMENTAL, mbedTLS, and wolfSSL DNS hostnames only. The documented contract at docs/libcurl/opts/CURLOPTSSLVERIFYPEER.md:57-59: The check that the host name in the...

curl: CURLOPT_PROXY_CRLFILE / CURLOPT_PROXY_ISSUERCERT / CURLOPT_PROXY_ISSUERCERT_BLOB silently ignored on backends that don't support them

From the Mythos report 2026-05-06 F1. CURLOPTPROXYCRLFILE / CURLOPTPROXYISSUERCERT / CURLOPTPROXYISSUERCERTBLOB silently ignored on backends that don't support them — severity Low https://github.com/curl/curl/blob/455bebc2c7/lib/setopt.cL1786-L1797...

JLSEC-2026-415 libcurl skips the certificate verification for a QUIC connection under certain conditions, when...

libcurl skips the certificate verification for a QUIC connection under certain conditions, when built to use wolfSSL. If told to use an unknown/bad cipher or curve, the error path accidentally skips the verification and returns OK, thus ignoring any certificate problems...

JLSEC-2026-433 libcurl supports *pinning* of the server certificate public key for HTTPS transfers. Due to an...

libcurl supports pinning of the server certificate public key for HTTPS transfers. Due to an omission, this check is not performed when connecting with QUIC for HTTP/3, when the TLS backend is wolfSSL. Documentation says the option works with wolfSSL, failing to specify that it does not for QUIC...

CVE-2026-5466

wolfSSL's ECCSI signature verifier wcVerifyEccsiHash decodes the r and s scalars from the signature blob via mpreadunsignedbin with no check that they lie in 1, q-1. A crafted forged signature could verify against any message for any identity, using only publicly-known constants...

CVE-2026-5479

In wolfSSL's EVP layer, the ChaCha20-Poly1305 AEAD decryption path in wolfSSLEVPCipherFinal and related EVP cipher finalization functions fails to verify the authentication tag before returning plaintext to the caller. When an application uses the EVP API to perform ChaCha20-Poly1305 decryption,...

CVE-2026-5295

A stack buffer overflow exists in wolfSSL's PKCS7 implementation in the wcPKCS7DecryptOri function in wolfcrypt/src/pkcs7.c. When processing a CMS EnvelopedData message containing an OtherRecipientInfo ORI recipient, the function copies an ASN.1-parsed OID into a fixed 32-byte stack buffer...

CVE-2026-5504

A padding oracle exists in wolfSSL's PKCS7 CBC decryption that could allow an attacker to recover plaintext through repeated decryption queries with modified ciphertext. In previous versions of wolfSSL the interior padding bytes are not validated...

EUVD-2026-21290

An integer underflow issue exists in wolfSSL when parsing the Subject Alternative Name SAN extension of X.509 certificates. A malformed certificate can specify an entry length larger than the enclosing sequence, causing the internal length counter to wrap during parsing. This results in incorrect...

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...
