Evidence used

  • No CISA KEV confirmation is currently recorded.
  • EPSS is 0.47% for the current model date.

Compensating controls

  • Validate the affected product branch and deploy the verified fixed release.
  • Restrict the affected network interface to trusted sources where business-safe.
  • Monitor vendor guidance and exploitation sources for a material change.

Verification

  1. Confirm that the asset runs Erlang OTP and falls inside the recorded affected range.
  2. Verify the installed build against the product-specific fixed version after deployment.
  3. Validate exposure, authentication requirements and compensating controls in the actual environment.
  4. Reopen this reassessment when CVSS, KEV, EPSS, exploit evidence or remediation changes.
Mitigation target: Within 30 daysRemediation target: Within 180 days

This automated reassessment organises public evidence. It does not know asset exposure, business impact or control effectiveness and does not replace CVSS or a human risk decision.

Cross-source reconciliation

Remediation availability differs by product scope

Verified remediation exists for at least one product or source, but 1 structured product or package state remain unresolved. Apply remediation only to the exact product branch confirmed by its source.

Distribution package intelligence

Release-specific package status

Debian, ubuntu findings are scoped to the named distribution, release and source package. An absent finding does not mean a package is unaffected.

5 package states
Package result overrides the generic status

BlackTree has verified remediation for at least one product or source, but the relevant distribution still reports no fixed package for 1 affected package state shown here. Treat those rows as affected with no fix until that distribution publishes a fixed version.

Repository candidate not checked

A published vendor fix does not prove that a matching update is enabled and installable on a particular asset. Confirm the local package candidate before scheduling remediation.

Summary
A flaw was found in Erlang OTP public_key. This improper certificate validation vulnerability allows a subordinate Certificate Authority (CA) with restricted DNS nameConstraints to bypass these restrictions. By issuing a leaf certificate that lacks a Subject Alternative Name (SAN) but contains a crafted CommonName (CN), an attacker can trick an Erlang OTP TLS client into accepting it as valid for an out-of-scope hostname. This can lead to hostname spoofing and potential man-in-the-middle attacks, compromising the integrity and confidentiality of communications.

Improper Certificate Validation vulnerability in Erlang OTP public_key (pubkey_cert and public_key modules) allows a DNS nameConstraints bypass via subject CommonName fallback in TLS hostname verification. Two flaws combine to allow a subordinate CA whose DNS nameConstraints are restricted (e.g. permitted;DNS:allowed.example.com) to issue a leaf certificate that an OTP TLS client accepts as a valid identity for an out-of-scope hostname (e.g. victim.example.com): First, pubkey_cert:validate_names/6 in lib/public_key/src/pubkey_cert.erl only checks SAN DNS entries against nameConstraints. Per RFC 5280, a permitted DNS subtree only restricts certificates that contain a DNS-typed name. A leaf with no subjectAltName therefore trivially satisfies any permitted;DNS:... constraint regardless of its subject commonName. Second, public_key:pkix_verify_hostname/3 in lib/public_key/src/public_key.erl falls back to the subject commonName when no subjectAltName is present, extracting id-at-commonName attributes as presented IDs and matching them against the reference hostname. The strict pkix_verify_hostname_match_fun(https) matcher does not suppress this fallback. The result is that path validation accepts a CN-only leaf under a DNS-constrained intermediate (no SAN means the nameConstraints are not triggered), and hostname verification then accepts it via the CN fallback. The bypass is reachable from stock ssl:connect with verify_peer, a trusted CA, SNI, and the canonical strict https hostname matcher. This issue affects OTP from OTP 19.3 before OTP 29.0.1, OTP 28.5.0.1, OTP 27.3.4.12 and OTP 26.2.5.21, corresponding to public_key from 1.4 before 1.21.1, 1.20.3.1, 1.17.1.3 and 1.15.1.7.

Exploit reality and attack path

CVSS severity, EPSS forecast probability, public exploit material and CISA-confirmed exploitation are separate signals.

Observed exploitation
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
No confirmed evidence

No CISA KEV match was present at the last successful refresh. This means no confirmation from that source, not proof of no exploitation.

Public PoC / exploit material
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
None recorded

No exploit-tagged reference or CISA SSVC proof-of-concept state is currently recorded. Research may still exist outside the structured feeds.

JVN iPedia · Japanese · JVNDB-2026-017841ERLANGのErlang/OTPにおける複数の脆弱性

Erlang OTPのpublic_key(pubkey_certおよびpublic_keyモジュール)には、不適切な証明書検証の脆弱性があります。この脆弱性により、TLSホスト名検証でsubject CommonNameにフォールバックすることでDNS nameConstraintsをバイパス可能です。2つの欠陥が組み合わさることで、DNS nameConstraintsで制限されている(例:permitted;DNS:allowed.example.com)サブオーディネートCAが、OTP TLSクライアントに範囲外のホスト名(例:victim.example.com)を有効なIDとして受け入れさせるリーフ証明書を発行できてしまいます。まず、lib/public_key/src/pubkey_cert.erl内のpubkey_cert:validate_names/6は、SANのDNSエントリのみをnameConstraintsと照合します。RFC 5280によれば、許可されたDNSサブツリーはDNS型の名前を含む証明書のみを制限します。subjectAltNameを持たないリーフ証明書は、そのsubject CommonNameに関係なく任意のpermitted;DNS:...制約を簡単に満たしてしまいます。次に、lib/public_key/src/public_key.erlのpublic_key:pkix_verify_hostname/3は、subjectAltNameが存在しない場合にsubject CommonNameにフォールバックし、id-at-commonName属性を提示されたIDとして抽出し、参照ホスト名と照合します。厳密なpkix_verify_hostname_match_fun(https)マッチャーでもこのフォールバックは抑制されません。その結果、SANを持たないためDNS制約が発動しないDNS制約付き中間CAの下で、CNのみのリーフ証明書が検証を通過し、ホスト名検証もCNフォールバックによりこれを受け入れてしまいます。このバイパスはverify_peer付きの標準ssl:connect、信頼済みCA、SNI、および正規の厳格なhttpsホスト名マッチャーを使用した場合に到達可能です。この問題はOTP 19.3からOTP 26.2.5.21、27.3.4.12、28.5.0.1、29.0.1のpublic_key 1.4から1.15.1.7、1.17.1.3、1.20.3.1、1.21.1に該当します。
