Affected: OpenSSL

Issue summary: A CMP client that requests certificate revocation on the basis of a PKCS#10 CSR may dereference a NULL pointer and terminate abnormally when processing a crafted revocation response.

Impact summary: The NULL pointer dereference happens on a read which leads to a crash and a Denial of Service for the affected client application.

CWE: CWE-476: NULL-pointer dereference

Description: A CMP client revoking a certificate has to tell the server which certificate to revoke, and may do so by supplying a PKCS#10 CSR instead of the certificate itself or its issuer name and serial number. This is 'openssl cmp -cmd rr -csr <file>' on the command line, or OSSL_CMP_exec_RR_ses() with the certificate supplied via OSSL_CMP_CTX_set1_p10CSR() through the API.

A CSR does not contain the issuer name and serial number of the certificate, so the client does not send them. A server may optionally name the certificate it revoked in its response, and the client then compares that name against what it sent. Having sent neither an issuer name nor a serial number, it has nothing to compare against, and a server returning a specially crafted name causes the client to read from a NULL pointer and crash.

The revocation response is checked for valid message protection before the affected code is reached, so an attacker must be a malicious or compromised CMP server, or a man-in-the-middle in possession of the secret used for message protection. Clients that identify the certificate to be…

It was discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly handled certain certificate revocation list distribution point names. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause OpenSSL to consume excessive memory, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2026-35189)

It was discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly handled QUIC unvalidated amplification credit accounting. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 26.04 LTS. (CVE-2026-35191)

It was discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly implemented scalar multiplication for non-NIST elliptic curves. An attacker could possibly use this issue to perform a timing side-channel attack and obtain sensitive information. (CVE-2026-54872)

It was discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly implemented SM2 scalar multiplication on ARM64 and RISC-V architectures. An attacker could possibly use this issue to perform a timing side-channel attack and obtain sensitive information. This issue only affected Ubuntu 26.04 LTS. (CVE-2026-54875)

It was discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly handled SSL context switching during a TLS handshake. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause an out-of-bounds read, resulting in a denial of service or obtaining sensitive information. This issue only affected Ubuntu 26.04 LTS. (CVE-2026-72897)

It was discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly enforced QUIC connection- level flow control for streams. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause OpenSSL to consume excess…
