3.7 LOW

Remotely reachable during TLS validation (AV:N) but gated on rare certificate misissuance under a name-constrained CA (AC:H); the attacker needs no victim privileges (PR:N), and impact is an integrity-only cert-scope bypass (I:L, C:N/A:N).

DescriptionCVE.org

rustls-webpki (the Rust webpki fork used by rustls) versions >= 0.101.0 and prior to 0.103.12 and 0.104.0-alpha.6 incorrectly accepted permitted-subtree DNS name constraints for certificates asserting a wildcard name. For example, a name constraint of accept.example.com was treated as satisfied by a certificate for *.example.com, which could feasibly assert reject.example.com - a name outside the permitted subtree. Because name constraints are restrictions applied to otherwise properly issued certificates, the issue is only reachable after signature verification succeeds and requires a misissued wildcard certificate to exploit.

AnalysisAI

Name-constraint bypass in rustls-webpki versions 0.101.0 through 0.103.11 and 0.104.0-alpha.1 through 0.104.0-alpha.5 allows a misissued wildcard certificate to escape permitted-subtree DNS name constraints, potentially permitting names outside the intended subtree. The flaw is reachable only after signature verification succeeds and requires a misissued wildcard certificate from a name-constrained CA, making real-world exploitation narrow and high-complexity (assessed CVSS 3.1 base 2.1, PR:N, AC:H). …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires two concrete preconditions that severely limit real-world risk: (1) a certificate chain that includes an intermediate CA carrying a permitted-subtree DNS name constraint (e.g. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment This is a genuinely low-priority, low-real-risk issue despite being a certificate-validation flaw. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Upgrade rustls-webpki to 0.103.12 (for the 0.103.x line) or 0.104.0-alpha.6 (for the 0.104.0-alpha line); these are the vendor-released patched versions per the GHSA advisory. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
