June 09, 2026

openssl, openssl1.0 vulnerabilities
==========================================================================

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

- Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 14.04 LTS

Summary:

USN-8414-1 fixed several vulnerabilities in OpenSSL.

Software Description:
- openssl: Secure Socket Layer (SSL) cryptographic library and tools
- openssl1.0: Secure Socket Layer (SSL) cryptographic library and tools

Details:

USN-8414-1 fixed several vulnerabilities in OpenSSL. This update provides
the corresponding update for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, Ubuntu
18.04 LTS, and Ubuntu 20.04 LTS.

 Original advisory details:

Frank Buss discovered that OpenSSL had a heap buffer over-read in ASN.1
content parsing. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause OpenSSL
to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or obtain sensitive
information. (CVE-2026-34180)

Asim Viladi Oglu Manizada and Alex Gaynor discovered that OpenSSL could
accept forged CMS AuthEnvelopedData messages. An attacker could possibly
use this issue to bypass message authentication checks. (CVE-2026-34182)

Mayank Jangid, Kushal Khemka, Hari Priandana, Bhabani Sankar Das, and Qifan
Zhang discovered that OpenSSL had a possible NULL dereference in password-
based CMS decryption. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause
OpenSSL to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2026-42766)

Zhanpeng Liu, Guannan Wang, and Guancheng Li discovered that OpenSSL had a
NULL pointer dereference in CRMF EncryptedValue decryption. An attacker
could possibly use this issue to cause OpenSSL to crash, resulting in a
denial of service. (CVE-2026-42767)

Thai Duong discovered that OpenSSL had a heap use-after-free in
PKCS7_verify(). An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause OpenSSL
to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or execute arbitrary code.
(CVE-2026-45447)

Zehua Qiao and Jinwen He discovered that OpenSSL had a possible heap buffer
overflow in ASN.1 multibyte string conversion. An attacker could possibly
use this issue to cause OpenSSL to crash, resulting in a denial of service,
or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2026-7383)

Bhabani Sankar Das discovered that OpenSSL had an out-of-bounds read in CMS
password-based decryption. An attacker could possibly use this issue to
cause OpenSSL to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2026-9076)
