Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires the attacker to occupy an active man-in-the-middle position on the network path between a Liman Render Engine endpoint and its peer - the flaw is improper TLS/certificate validation (CWE-295), so the attacker must intercept the connection and present a fraudulent or invalid certificate that the engine wrongly accepts. This positioning requirement (reflected in AC:H) is the primary limiter: the vulnerability is not remotely exploitable against a default configuration without first controlling network traffic. No authentication (PR:N) and no user interaction (UI:N) are needed once the AiTM position is achieved. Impact is limited to confidentiality (interception/decryption of sensitive data); there is no direct integrity or availability effect per the vendor scoring. Only Liman Render Engine versions from 1.0 before 1.2-75 are affected.

Impact

This is a genuine but modest-priority issue. Every signal points to limited real-world risk. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 5.9 (MEDIUM) driven by AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N with C:H/I:N/A:N - the high confidentiality but zero integrity/availability impact reflects a pure information-disclosure exposure via man-in-the-middle interception, and the AC:H reflects the meaningful precondition that an attacker must already occupy a privileged network position. CISA SSVC reinforces the low urgency: Exploitation=none (no observed or public exploitation), Automatable=no (the AiTM positioning requirement resists mass automation), Technical Impact=partial. There is no EPSS score, no CISA KEV listing, and no public POC in the provided data, so this is 'no public exploit identified at time of analysis.' No signals conflict - CVSS, SSVC, and the absence of exploitation evidence all agree this is a targeted, position-dependent confidentiality weakness rather than a widely-weaponized flaw. One note for verification: the CWE-295 (improper certificate validation) mapping is consistent with the AiTM description and the C:H/I:N/A:N impact, though a certificate-validation flaw could in principle also enable content tampering (integrity) if an attacker actively rewrites intercepted traffic - the vendor scored I:N, treating it as passive decryption only; defenders relying on this channel's integrity should confirm with HAVELSAN.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker positioned on the network path between a Liman Render Engine client and its server (e.g., on a shared LAN, compromised router, or rogue Wi-Fi) presents a fraudulent TLS certificate that the engine fails to properly validate. Because the certificate check is improper, the client accepts the malicious endpoint, letting the attacker transparently decrypt and read sensitive rendered content or credentials in transit. No public exploit code is identified, and the attack requires the adversary to first achieve the man-in-the-middle position, which limits opportunistic use.

AnalysisAIv1 – Sep 24, 2026

Improper TLS certificate validation in HAVELSAN Liman Render Engine (versions from 1.0 up to but not including 1.2-75) lets a network-positioned adversary conduct an adversary-in-the-middle attack, causing the engine to accept forged or otherwise invalid certificates so that intercepted traffic can be decrypted and sensitive data disclosed. The assessed vector (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N, base 5.9) shows no authentication or user-interaction prerequisite, but exploitation hinges on the attacker first occupying a man-in-the-middle position on the path between an engine endpoint and its peer, which is why the attack is scored high-complexity and the impact is confidentiality-only with no integrity or availability effect. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, CISA SSVC records exploitation as 'none' with automatable 'no' and partial technical impact, and the issue was reported by TR-CERT.

RemediationAI

The source data does not state an explicit fixed build number, but the affected range terminates at 1.2-75, so upgrading Liman Render Engine to 1.2-75 or later is the indicated remediation, and administrators should confirm the fixed version with HAVELSAN and consult the TR-CERT advisory TR-26-1172 (https://siberguvenlik.gov.tr/guvenlik-bildirimleri/detay/tr-26-1172) before treating a deployment as remediated. Until an upgrade can be staged, compensating controls should target the network position the attack depends on: keep Render Engine endpoints and their peers inside trusted, segmented management networks and block untrusted or direct internet paths to those endpoints (trade-off: loss of remote access flexibility unless routed through a hardened gateway), terminate and validate TLS at a trusted reverse proxy or TLS-inspecting gateway that enforces strict certificate-chain and hostname verification on behalf of the engine (trade-off: TLS inspection can break pinned or non-standard clients and adds a decryption point that must itself be protected), and tightly constrain the trust store used by the deployment so only organization-controlled CAs are honored (trade-off: certificate rotation and any third-party integrations must be re-issued). Because exploitation requires an on-path adversary, monitoring for unexpected certificate issuers or AiTM-style connection relays on the paths used by Render Engine provides useful detection while patching is pending. Note that per SSVC this issue is not automatable and no exploitation activity has been recorded, so remediation can proceed on a normal rather than emergency cadence.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The root cause is CWE-295 (Improper Certificate Validation) in the TLS/certificate handling logic of the Liman Render Engine component of HAVELSAN's Liman product line. Rather than anchoring trust to a validated certificate chain or expected hostname/identity, the engine accepts certificates it should reject, which defeats the confidentiality guarantee that TLS normally provides against an on-path attacker. The CPE cpe:2.3:a:havelsan_inc.:liman_render_engine:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* registers the CPE as a wildcard for all versions, while the vendor's own versioning statement narrows the truly affected range to releases from 1.0 before 1.2-75. Because the weakness is in the trust decision rather than in the cipher suite itself, the practical attack is a classic AiTM: the attacker terminates or relays the connection, presents a fraudulent certificate, and the engine proceeds as if the session were authenticated. The assessed CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N vector confirms this profile - network-reachable and unauthenticated with no user interaction required once the interposition is achieved, but gated by the AC:H positioning precondition, and constrained to confidentiality impact (no scope change, no integrity or availability loss).
