CVE-2026-119559

CVSS 8.2 (high) · published 2026-10-30

OpenLiteSpeed through 1.9.4 contains an authentication bypass vulnerability that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to evade virtual host client certificate requirements over HTTP/3. Because QuicStream inherits a verifyContext() implementation that always returns true, attackers can present a non-mTLS host's SNI with a protected Host header to access protected content.

Weakness: CWE-295

Source: NVD CVE-2026-119559
