GHSA-M959-CC7F-WV43
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-03-27 19:56 – Updated: 2026-06-05 17:51Summary
In versions of cryptography prior to 46.0.5, DNS name constraints were only validated against SANs within child certificates, and not the "peer name" presented during each validation. Consequently, cryptography would allow a peer named bar.example.com to validate against a wildcard leaf certificate for *.example.com, even if the leaf's parent certificate (or upwards) contained an excluded subtree constraint for bar.example.com.
This behavior resulted from a gap between RFC 5280 (which defines Name Constraint semantics) and RFC 9525 (which defines service identity semantics): put together, neither states definitively whether Name Constraints should be applied to peer names. To close this gap, cryptography now conservatively rejects any validation where the peer name would be rejected by a name constraint if it were a SAN instead.
In practice, exploitation of this bypass requires an uncommon X.509 topology, one that the Web PKI avoids because it exhibits these kinds of problems. Consequently, we consider this a medium-to-low impact severity.
See CVE-2025-61727 for a similar bypass in Go's crypto/x509.
Remediation
Users should upgrade to 46.0.6 or newer.

GHSA-M9GG-HP2V-232J
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-09-30 15:35 – Updated: 2026-09-30 15:35Impact
When server credentials are created with the requireClientCertificate option set to false, getAuthContext does not distinguish between authorized and unauthorized certificates in its return value. This can create improper authentication vulnerabilities for @grpc/grpc-js users who use the result of getAuthContext for authentication.
In particular, @grpc/grpc-js-xds can both set the requireClientCertificate option to false and use the return value of getAuthContext for RBAC authentication in some configurations.
Patches
This vulenrability is fixed in 1.13.6 and 1.14.5.
Workarounds
@grpc/grpc-js users using getAuthContext this way can avoid this problem by setting requireClientCertificate to true. @grpc/grpc-js-xds users using RBAC can avoid this by setting the require_client_certificate field to true in the DownstreamTlsContext in the xDS configuration.

GHSA-MC24-7M59-4Q5P
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-02-01 17:58 – Updated: 2026-02-27 20:41Impact
A vulnerability has been identified within Rancher Manager, where using self-signed CA certificates and passing the -skip-verify flag to the Rancher CLI login command without also passing the –cacert flag results in the CLI attempting to fetch CA certificates stored in Rancher’s setting cacerts. This does not apply to any other commands and only applies to the login command if the –cacert flag was not provided.
An attacker with network-level access between the Rancher CLI and Rancher Manager could interfere with the TLS handshake to return a CA they control, despite the use of the --skip-verify flag. This may be abused to bypass TLS as a security control. Attackers can also see basic authentication headers in a Man-in-the-Middle due to the lack of TLS enforcement.
Please consult the associated MITRE ATT&CK - Technique - Man-in-the-Middle for further information about this category of attack.
Patches
This vulnerability is addressed by removing the ability to fetch CA certificates stored in Rancher’s setting cacerts when using the login command. Whenever required, for example when using self-signed certificates, CA certificates have to be explicitly passed with the –cacert flag.
Patched versions of Rancher include releases v2.13.2, v2.12.6, v2.11.10, and v2.10.11.
Workarounds
If a projecct can't upgrade to a fixed version, please make sure whenever required, for example when using self-signed certificates, to always explicitly pass CA certificates with the –cacert flag when using the login command.
References
If there are any questions or comments about this advisory: - Reach out to the SUSE Rancher Security team for security related inquiries. - Open an issue in the Rancher repository. - Verify with the support matrix and product support lifecycle.
Note: Rancher versions beyond 2.3.0-alpha5 are no longer supported at pkg.go.dev, follow Rancher installation instructions for newer versions.

Mitigation
Certificates should be carefully managed and checked to assure that data are encrypted with the intended owner's public key.
Mitigation
If certificate pinning is being used, ensure that all relevant properties of the certificate are fully validated before the certificate is pinned, including the hostname.
CAPEC-459: Creating a Rogue Certification Authority Certificate
An adversary exploits a weakness resulting from using a hashing algorithm with weak collision resistance to generate certificate signing requests (CSR) that contain collision blocks in their "to be signed" parts. The adversary submits one CSR to be signed by a trusted certificate authority then uses the signed blob to make a second certificate appear signed by said certificate authority. Due to the hash collision, both certificates, though different, hash to the same value and so the signed blob works just as well in the second certificate. The net effect is that the adversary's second X.509 certificate, which the Certification Authority has never seen, is now signed and validated by that Certification Authority.
CAPEC-475: Signature Spoofing by Improper Validation
An adversary exploits a cryptographic weakness in the signature verification algorithm implementation to generate a valid signature without knowing the key.
