This enables an attacker to construct certificates that escape the restricted scope of a subordinate Certificate Authority (CA) and successfully authenticate against vulnerable client installations. The vulnerability is tracked as CVE-2026-69248 and GHSA-m2h6-j472-rp4c, with a CVSS v4.0 base score of 6.9.\n\n## TL;DR\nA flaw in python-cryptography's Rust-based X.509 verifier allows a wildcard SAN (e.g., `*.example.com`) to satisfy a restricted permitted Name Constraint (e.g., `foo.example.com`), enabling subordinate CA scope escape.\n\n## Technical Details\n\n- **CWE ID**: CWE-295\n- **Attack Vector**: Network\n- **CVSS v4.0**: 6.9 (Medium)\n- **EPSS Score**: Not yet indexed\n- **Impact**: High (Complete Bypass of Certificate-Based Trust Boundaries)\n- **Exploit Status**: poc\n- **KEV Status**: Not Listed\n\n## Affected Systems\n\n- python-cryptography (cryptography-x509-verification crate)\n- **cryptography**: < 49.0.0 (Fixed in: `49.0.0`)\n\n## Mitigation\n\n- Upgrade python-cryptography to version 49.0.0 or higher.\n- Audit active certificates in the PKI to identify wildcard SANs issued by restricted sub-CAs.\n- Implement validation-layer checks in Python code to enforce minimum library versions.\n\n**Remediation Steps:**\n1. Identify all virtual environments and containers running python-cryptography.\n2. Execute the upgrade command: pip install --upgrade \"cryptography>=49.0.0\".\n3. Re-deploy applications and verify that the active library version is at least 49.0.0.\n4. Validate certificate issuance policies to ensure sub-CAs cannot sign wildcard certificates that violate constraints.\n\n\n---\n*Generated by [CVEReports](https://cvereports.com/reports/CVE-2026-69248) - Automated Vulnerability Intelligence*", "creation_timestamp": "2026-08-04T00:00:43.607882Z"} {"uuid": "18494c72-ad9f-43c8-89b5-33b850f08b1e", "vulnerability_lookup_origin": "1a89b78e-f703-45f3-bb86-59eb712668bd", "author": "9f56dd64-161d-43a6-b9c3-555944290a09", "vulnerability": "CVE-2026-69248", "type": "seen", "source": "https://gist.github.com/alon710/ab6ab460d039209b756930fd867ab75f", "content": "# CVE-2026-69248: CVE-2026-69248: Name Constraints Bypass via Wildcard SANs in Python cryptography\n\n> **CVSS Score:** 6.9\n> **Published:** 2026-08-03\n> **Full Report:** https://cvereports.com/reports/CVE-2026-69248\n\n## Summary\nAn improper certificate validation vulnerability (CWE-295) in the Rust-based X.509 verification engine of python-cryptography allows wildcard Subject Alternative Names (SANs) to bypass permitted Name Constraints.
