Last modified
CVE-2026-118373 is a low-severity vulnerability rated 3.7/10 on the CVSS scale. LibreSSL ocspcheck through 4.4.0 contains a cleartext transmission vulnerability because url2host() discards the OCSP URL scheme and http_alloc() only selects TLS for port 443. On-path network attackers can read OCSP requests sent to https responder URLs on non-443 ports, exposing certificate serial numbers, issuer hashes, and nonces.. EPSS estimates a 0.09% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
