Affected: AlmaLinux:10: openssl, AlmaLinux:10: openssl-devel, AlmaLinux:10: openssl-libs, AlmaLinux:10: openssl-perl

OpenSSL is a toolkit that implements the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocols, as well as a full-strength general-purpose cryptography library.

Security Fix(es):

* openssl: OpenSSL: Denial of Service via unbounded memory growth in QUIC server (CVE-2026-14456) * openssl: QUIC server may trigger double free when processing INITIAL packet (CVE-2026-18798) * openssl: heap buffer overflow in CMS key unwrapping (CVE-2026-63072) * openssl: invalid pointer dereference in CMP server via crafted protectionAlg (CVE-2026-63076) * openssl: RPK server signature algorithm selection can dereference a missing certificate (CVE-2026-14457) * openssl: excessive memory use buffering DTLS records for a future epoch (CVE-2026-54874) * openssl: untrusted sender DN used as format string in CMP response validation (CVE-2026-63073) * openssl: CMP indefinite cache growth of ExtraCerts (CVE-2026-63074) * openssl: QUIC ACK-only packet retention can cause memory exhaustion (CVE-2026-63075)

Bug Fix(es) and Enhancement(s):

* openssl: HollowByte remote memory-exhaustion DoS fix may be missing [AlmaLinux 10.2.z] (JIRA:AlmaLinux-212362)

Issue summary: OpenSSL CMP response validation passed an unexpected response sender distinguished name directly as the format string to `ERR_raise_data()`.

Impact summary: A malicious or intercepted CMP endpoint can crash a CMP client that enforces an expected sender or uses a pinned server certificate whose subject becomes the default expected sender.

CWE: CWE-134 (Use of Externally-Controlled Format String)

Description: When validating a received CMP message, ossl_cmp_msg_check_update() converts the peer-supplied sender distinguished name with X509_NAME_oneline() and passes it directly as the format argument to ERR_raise_data(). Percent characters survive the conversion, so a sender DN such as "CN=%s%n" reaches BIO_vsnprintf() as an attacker-controlled format string with no matching variadic arguments. This path is only reached when the caller configures an expected sender or pins a server certificate, which is the normal configuration for a CMP client validating server responses.

Since the attacker controls the format string but none of the variadic arguments, such specifiers as %s and %n dereference or write through unrelated stack contents and crash the client. The reliable consequence is a denial of service, when the response comes from a malicious or intercepted CMP endpoint. There is no controlled memory write, arbitrary-address read, or reliable path to remote code execution.

OESA-2026-3830 — openssl security update

Affected: openEuler:24.03-LTS-SP4: openssl

OpenSSL is a robust, commercial-grade, and full-featured toolkit for the Transport Layer Security (TLS) and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocols. Security Fix(es):

Issue summary: In a server or client configuration with RFC7250 Raw Public Keys (RPKs) enabled, and only the private key (with no associated certificate) configured locally, a NULL pointer dereference may occur when the remote peer solicits raw public keys and also sends the typically omitted "signature_algorithms_cert" TLS extension.

Impact summary: The impact is limited to a possible Denial of Service as a result of an application abort, no data disclosure or remote command execution are possible.

CWE: CWE-476: NULL Pointer Dereference

Description: While a passing comment in sample code in the documentation suggests that key-only RPK configurations are supported, the best-practice RPK configuration is to always configure a corresponding certificate (possibly self-signed or signed by any convenient CA).

When the private key is configured along with a matching certificate, the "signature_algorithms_cert" extension is handled reliably even without the fix, and peer clients or servers that don't support raw public keys may be able to complete a TLS connection by pinning or verifying the corresponding certificate or its public key.

Deployments that prefer to configure just a private key with no certificate need to upgrade to an updated release as noted below.

FIPS impact: no
