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,...

Prefix Truncation Attack against ChaCha20-Poly1305 and Encrypt-then-MAC aka Terrapin

SummaryTerrapin is a prefix truncation attack targeting the SSH protocol. More precisely, Terrapin breaks the integrity of SSH's secure channel. By carefully adjusting the sequence numbers during the handshake, an attacker can remove an arbitrary amount of messages sent by the client or server at...

DEBIAN-CVE-2026-13758

CryptX versions before 0.088001 for Perl compare AEAD authentication tags in non-constant time in the streaming decryptdone path. The decryptdone$tag form compares it against the computed tag with memNE memcmp != 0, which short-circuits on the first differing byte, so its run time depends on the...

GHSA-6VVH-PXR4-25R7 PHP JWT Framework: Chacha20Poly1305 key-encryption algorithm discards the Poly1305 authentication tag, performing no authentication on decryption

Impact The experimental Chacha20Poly1305 key-encryption algorithm generates the 16-byte Poly1305 authentication tag during encryptKey but discards it: the tag is never written to the header and therefore never reaches the wire. On the receiving side, decryptKey calls...
