What is CVE-2026-3548?

Two buffer overflow vulnerabilities were identified in the wolfSSL CRL parser, specifically related to CRL number parsing. A heap-based overflow can occur when a CRL number is improperly stored as a hexadecimal string, leading to potential out-of-bounds memory access. Additionally, a stack-based overflow may arise for certain large CRL numbers. These vulnerabilities are triggered when loading CRL files from untrusted sources, and they only affect builds where CRL support is enabled.
