1) Improper Verification of Cryptographic Signature (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-25793)

CWE-ID: CWE-347 - Improper Verification of Cryptographic Signature

CVSSv4: 8.6 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a remote user to bypass certificate blocklist enforcement.

The vulnerability exists due to improper handling of ECDSA signature malleability in certificate fingerprint blocklist validation when processing P256 certificates. A remote user can use a copy of a certificate with a different fingerprint to bypass certificate blocklist enforcement.

Exploitation requires the use of CURVE_P256 certificates, an existing blocklist entry for a certificate signed by a trusted CA that is not expired, and access to the corresponding private key and certificate.
