1) Improper Check for Certificate Revocation (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-113470)

CWE-ID: CWE-299 - Improper Check for Certificate Revocation

CVSSv4: 7.4 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to potentially impersonate trusted websites and intercept sensitive communications using compromised certificates.

The vulnerability exists due to incomplete certificate revocation enforcement in the Security Block-lists, Allow-lists, and other State component when validating certificate chains involving compromised eMudhra intermediate certificates. A remote attacker can present a certificate chain relying on a compromised intermediate certificate to potentially have an untrusted connection accepted as trusted.

The affected scenario involves RemoteSettings being disabled by policy or otherwise unavailable.
