CVE-2026-11999 X.509 trust-chain bypass via path-depth exhaustion in wolfSSL_X509_verify_cert()

X.509 trust-chain bypass path-depth exhaustion in the OpenSSL compatibility certificate verifier wolfSSLX509verifycert. This affects only builds with --enable-opensslextra whose application calls X509verifycert with caller-supplied untrusted intermediates; for those users it is critical, otherwis...

CVE-2026-11999

X.509 trust-chain bypass path-depth exhaustion in the OpenSSL compatibility certificate verifier wolfSSLX509verifycert. This affects only builds with --enable-opensslextra whose application calls X509verifycert with caller-supplied untrusted intermediates; for those users it is critical, otherwis...

CVE-2026-55961

The CVE describes a flaw in wolfSSL where wolfSSL_PKCS7_verify() incorrectly reported success for a degenerate PKCS#7 object that contains no signer. In such objects, signerInfos is empty, so underlying signed-data verification could succeed without authenticating any content. The fix enforces th...

CVE-2026-55961 wolfSSL_PKCS7_verify() reports success for degenerate (certs-only) PKCS#7 with no signer

wolfSSLPKCS7verify returning success for a degenerate certs-only PKCS7 object that contains no signer. Such an object has empty signerInfos, so the underlying signed-data verification succeeds without authenticating any content. The compatibility-layer verify path now rejects the object when no...

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...

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-2026-6291

Bleichenbacher padding oracle in PKCS7 KTRI decryption. When decrypting PKCS7 EnvelopedData using RSA PKCS1 v1.5 key transport, wolfSSL returned distinguishable error codes depending on whether RSA padding validation failed versus whether the decrypted content was malformed. An attacker able to...

CVE-2026-6291 Bleichenbacher padding oracle in PKCS#7 KTRI RSA PKCS#1 v1.5 decryption

Bleichenbacher padding oracle in PKCS7 KTRI decryption. When decrypting PKCS7 EnvelopedData using RSA PKCS1 v1.5 key transport, wolfSSL returned distinguishable error codes depending on whether RSA padding validation failed versus whether the decrypted content was malformed. An attacker able to...

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions wolfSSL affected versions not specified Description An X.509 trust-chain bypass exists in the OpenSSL compatibility certificate verifier function wolfSSL X509 verify cert. This issue occurs in builds configured with --enable-opensslextra OPENS...

PT-2026-52587

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions wolfSSL versions prior to 5.9.1 Description A heap buffer overflow occurs in the DTLS 1.3 ACK serialization path before the connecting peer is authenticated. The issue stems from an integer truncation when calculating the length of the ACK...

PT-2026-52623

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions wolfSSL affected versions not specified Description A configuration issue occurs when WOLFSSL IP ALT NAME is not defined, leading to a bypass of iPAddress name constraints. In this state, the software fails to enforce IP address constraints se...

PT-2026-52590

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions wolfSSL affected versions not specified Description A length-confusion issue exists in the wolfSSL OCSP resp find status function. The lookup process compares serial-number bytes without verifying that the two serial numbers are of equal lengt...

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...
