New CVE Received from wolfSSL Inc. 4/10/2026 12:17:16 AM
| Action | Type | Old Value | New Value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Added | Description | In wolfSSL's EVP layer, the ChaCha20-Poly1305 AEAD decryption path in wolfSSL_EVP_CipherFinal (and related EVP cipher finalization functions) fails to verify the authentication tag before returning plaintext to the caller. When an application uses the EVP API to perform ChaCha20-Poly1305 decryption, the implementation computes or accepts the tag but does not compare it against the expected value. | |
