Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 security vulnerability.


1) Always-Incorrect Control Flow Implementation (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-2673)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause the use of a less preferred key agreement group.

The vulnerability exists due to improper implementation of group tuple handling in TLS 1.3 server key exchange group negotiation when processing a ClientHello with initial predicted keyshares while the server configuration uses the "DEFAULT" keyword. A remote attacker can send a crafted TLS handshake to cause the use of a less preferred key agreement group.

No OpenSSL FIPS modules are affected because the vulnerable code lies outside the FIPS boundary.
