Details
Viktor Dukhovni discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly negotiated the expected
preferred key exchange group when used as a TLS 1.3 server. This could
result in a less preferred key exchange being used, contrary to
expectations. This issue only affected Ubuntu 25.10. (CVE-2026-2673)
Igor Morgenstern discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly handled certain memory
operations when used as a DANE client. A remote attacker could use this
issue to cause OpenSSL to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or
possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2026-28387)
Igor Morgenstern discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly handled certain memory
operations when processing a delta CRL. A remote attacker could possibly
use this issue to cause OpenSSL to crash, resulting in a denial of service.
(CVE-2026-28388)

(CVE-2026-28388)
Nathan Sportsman, Daniel Rhea, and Jaeho Nam discovered that OpenSSL
incorrectly handled certain memory operations when processing a crafted CMS
EnvelopedData message with KeyAgreeRecipientInfo. A remote attacker could
possibly use this issue to cause OpenSSL to crash, resulting in a denial
of service. (CVE-2026-28389)
Muhammad Daffa, Joshua Rogers, and Chanho Kim discovered that OpenSSL
incorrectly handled processing of a crafted CMS EnvelopedData message with
KeyTransportRecipientInfo. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue
to cause OpenSSL to crash, resulting in a denial of service.
(CVE-2026-28390)
Quoc Tran discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly handled hexadecimal
conversion on 32-bit platforms. A remote attacker could use this issue to
cause OpenSSL to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly
execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2026-31789)
Simo Sorce discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly handled failures in RSA KEM
RSASVE Encapsulation. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to
obtain sensitive information. (CVE-2026-31790)
