Technical Analysis
CVE-2026-95208 is a denial of service vulnerability in the ConfirmNameConstraints() function located in wolfcrypt/src/asn.c of wolfSSL versions 5.9.1 and 5.9.2. The flaw allows attackers to cause TLS clients using wolfSSL to incorrectly reject valid certificates that lack Subject Alternative Names (SAN) by supplying specially crafted Certificate Authority certificates. This leads to a denial of service condition in affected TLS clients.
Potential Impact
Attackers can cause a denial of service by making wolfSSL-based TLS clients reject valid certificates without SAN, disrupting normal TLS connections that rely on these certificates.
