CVE-2026-2673

A key group selection preference flaw has been discovered in OpenSSL. An OpenSSL TLS 1.3 server may fail to negotiate the expected preferred key exchange group when its key exchange group configuration includes the default by using the "DEFAULT" keyword. A less preferred key exchange may be used...

CVE-2026-2673

An implementation defect in OpenSSL versions 3.5 and 3.6 causes the 'DEFAULT' keyword in TLS 1.3 configurations to lose its 'tuple' structure. This defect prevents the server from sending a Hello Retry Request (HRR) when a client supports a more preferred group that was not included in its initia...

Layered Performance Analysis of TLS 1.3 Handshakes: Classical, Hybrid, and Pure Post-Quantum Key Exchange

In this paper, we present a laboratory study focused on the impact of post-quantum cryptography PQC algorithms on multiple layers of stateful HTTP over TLS transactions: the TCP handshake, the intermediate TCP-TLS layer, the TLS handshake, the intermediate TLS layer, and the HTTP application laye...

Post-Quantum Federated Learning: Secure and Scalable Threat Intelligence for Collaborative Cyber Defense

Collaborative threat intelligence via federated learning FL faces critical risks from quantum computing, which can compromise classical encryption methods. This study proposes a quantum-secure FL framework using post-quantum cryptography PQC to protect cross-organizational data sharing. We expose...

Securing Cryptography in the Age of Quantum Computing and AI: Threats, Implementations, and Strategic Response

This review examines how quantum computing and artificial intelligence challenge current cryptographic systems. We analyze the literature to assess the resilience of algorithms against quantum attacks Shor's and Grover's algorithms and AI-enhanced cryptanalysis. RSA and elliptic curve cryptograph...

PQC-LEO: An Evaluation Framework for Post-Quantum Cryptographic Algorithms

Advances in quantum computing threaten digital communication security by undermining the foundations of current public-key cryptography through Shor's quantum algorithm. This has driven the development of Post-Quantum Cryptography PQC, a new set of algorithms resistant to quantum attacks. While...

Preparing for the Quantum Era: Post-Quantum Cryptography Webinar for Security Leaders

Most organizations assume encrypted data is safe. But many attackers are already preparing for a future where today’s encryption can be broken. Instead of trying to decrypt information now, they are collecting encrypted data and storing it so it can be decrypted later using quantum computers. Thi...

Google Develops Merkle Tree Certificates to Enable Quantum-Resistant HTTPS in Chrome

Google has announced a new program in its Chrome browser to ensure that HTTPS certificates are secure against the future risk posed by quantum computers. "To ensure the scalability and efficiency of the ecosystem, Chrome has no immediate plan to add traditional X.509 certificates containing...

Expert Recommends: Prepare for PQC Right Now

Introduction: Steal It Today, Break It in a Decade Digital evolution is unstoppable, and though the pace may vary, things tend to fall into place sooner rather than later. That, of course, applies to adversaries as well. The rise of ransomware and cyber extortion generated funding for a complex a...

Implementation and Transition to Post-Quantum Cryptography of the Minimal IKE Protocol

This paper concerns the Minimal Internet Key Exchange IKE protocol, which has received little attention to date, despite its potential to make the best-known IKE protocol sufficiently lightweight to be also applied in contexts where it is currently prohibitive, due to its large footprint. First, ...
