CVE-2026-5503 (GCVE-0-2026-5503)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-04-09 22:35 – Updated: 2026-04-10 17:58

Title

out-of-bounds write in TLSX_EchChangeSNI via attacker-controlled publicName

Summary

In TLSX_EchChangeSNI, the ctx->extensions branch set extensions unconditionally even when TLSX_Find returned NULL. This caused TLSX_UseSNI to attach the attacker-controlled publicName to the shared WOLFSSL_CTX when no inner SNI was configured. TLSX_EchRestoreSNI then failed to clean it up because its removal was gated on serverNameX != NULL. The inner ClientHello was sized before the pollution but written after it, causing TLSX_SNI_Write to memcpy 255 bytes past the allocation boundary.

Severity

6.9 (Medium)

TLSX_EchRestoreSNI then failed to clean it up because its removal was gated on serverNameX != NULL.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
