CVE-2026-5263

CVE-2026-5263 PUBLISHED CVSS 7 HIGH

Reported by wolfSSL · Published April 9, 2026

URI nameConstraints from constrained intermediate CAs are parsed but not enforced during certificate chain verification in wolfcrypt/src/asn.c. A compromised or malicious sub-CA could issue leaf certificates with URI SAN entries that violate the nameConstraints of the issuing CA, and wolfSSL would accept them as valid.
