      <title>CVE-2026-42764 — NULL Pointer Dereference in QUIC Server Initial Packet Handling</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-42764</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; OpenSSL&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Issue summary: Receiving a QUIC initial packet with an invalid token may
trigger a NULL pointer dereference in the OpenSSL QUIC server with
address validation disabled.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Impact summary: NULL pointer dereference typically causes abnormal termination
of the affected QUIC server process and a Denial of Service.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If the address validation is disabled in the OpenSSL QUIC server
implementation, an attacker can crash the server by sending an initial
packet with an invalid or expired token.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;By default, the client address validation is enabled in the OpenSSL QUIC server
implementation, which makes the default configuration not vulnerable
to this issue. However if the SSL_LISTENER_FLAG_NO_VALIDATE is used with
the SSL_new_listener() call, the address validation is disabled making the
vulnerable code reachable.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The FIPS modules in 4.0, 3.6, 3.5, 3.4, and 3.0 are not affected by this
issue, as the affected code is outside the OpenSSL FIPS module boundary.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
