Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-41676)

CWE-ID: CWE-787 - Out-of-bounds write

CVSSv4: 8.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a buffer overflow.

The vulnerability exists due to a heap/stack overflow in Deriver::derive and PkeyCtxRef::derive when deriving shared secrets into a caller-supplied buffer on OpenSSL 1.1.x. A remote attacker can provide or trigger use of a short buffer to cause a buffer overflow.

Only OpenSSL 1.1.x is affected; OpenSSL 3.x providers check the buffer length.
