Resource exhaustion in Go programming language - CVE-2026-27145

Published: July 31, 2026


Vulnerability identifier: #VU140620
CSH Severity: Medium
CVSS v4: 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]
CVE-ID: CVE-2026-27145
CWE-ID: CWE-400
Exploitation vector: Remote access
Exploit availability: No public exploit available

Vulnerability details

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to uncontrolled resource consumption in crypto/x509 certificate hostname verification when processing certificates with a large DNS subject alternative name list. A remote attacker can present a specially crafted certificate to cause a denial of service.

The excessive verification cost occurs before the certificate chain is built, so the overhead is incurred even for untrusted certificates.
