CVE-2026-118372

CVSS 6.3 (medium) · published 2026-10-28

LibreSSL ocspcheck through 4.4.0 contains a CRLF injection vulnerability that allows attackers to inject HTTP headers by embedding CR/LF sequences in a certificate's AIA OCSP URI path. Because url2host() copies the path without rejecting control characters and http_open() places it in the POST request line, attackers can inject headers or split OCSP requests sent to the responder host.

Weakness: CWE-93

Source: NVD CVE-2026-118372
