4DescriptionCVE.org
Handshakes which used Encrypted Client Hello could be de-anonymized by a passive network observer due to a disclosure of pre-shared key identities in the unencrypted client hello.
AnalysisAI
Passive network de-anonymization of Encrypted Client Hello (ECH) connections is possible in Go's crypto/tls library because pre-shared key (PSK) identities are exposed in cleartext outer ClientHello messages, allowing any on-path observer to correlate resumption sessions and identify servers despite ECH's intended privacy protections. Affected versions span crypto/tls prior to 1.25.12, 1.26.5, and 1.27.0-rc.2 across the Go standard library. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis and no CISA KEV listing exists; however, exploitation requires no authentication or user interaction and is accessible to any network-level adversary with passive traffic visibility.
Technical ContextAI
Encrypted Client Hello (ECH) is a TLS 1.3 extension that encrypts the sensitive inner ClientHello - including the Server Name Indication (SNI) - inside an unencrypted outer ClientHello envelope, preventing passive observers from identifying the intended server. TLS session resumption uses Pre-Shared Keys (PSKs), each identified by a PSK identity value derived from a prior completed session. The root cause (CWE-201: Exposure of Sensitive Information Through Sent Data) is that Go's crypto/tls implementation fails to suppress PSK identity values when constructing the outer ClientHello during an ECH handshake. Because PSK identities are session-specific and can be correlated to prior connections or to specific servers, their presence in cleartext directly undermines ECH's anonymity guarantees. The affected product is identified by CPE cpe:2.3:a:go_standard_library:crypto/tls:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* and spans all three active Go release branches.
RemediationAI
The primary fix is to upgrade the Go toolchain to a patched release - Go 1.25.12, Go 1.26.5, or Go 1.27.0-rc.2 or later, depending on the release branch in use. The upstream code fix is tracked at https://go.dev/cl/775960 and the issue at https://go.dev/issue/79282. The Go security announcement at https://groups.google.com/g/golang-announce/c/OrmQE_Yp5Sc should be consulted for release timing. For organizations unable to upgrade immediately, the most effective compensating control is to audit whether ECH is explicitly enabled in TLS configurations; if ECH is not configured, the vulnerability is not exploitable regardless of Go version. If ECH is operationally required and patching is delayed, restricting outbound TLS traffic to trusted, VPN-protected, or mutually authenticated network paths reduces passive observation exposure, though this adds operational overhead and does not address the root cause in the library.
