    Package        : php-phpseclib     Version        : 2.0.30-2+deb11u3     CVE ID         : CVE-2023-52892 CVE-2026-32935 CVE-2026-40194                      CVE-2026-44167 CVE-2026-55599     Debian Bug     : 1131483

    Several vulnerabilities were discovered in phpseclib, a PHP secure     communications library, which could result in hostname validation     bypass, timing side-channel attacks, denial of service, and     server-side request forgery (SSRF).

    CVE-2023-52892

        X509.php did not properly escape regular expression special         characters in a certificate's subjectAltName, allowing a crafted         certificate to bypass hostname validation in validateURL().

    CVE-2026-32935

        The block cipher unpadding routine in Crypt/Base.php used a         short-circuiting comparison, creating a timing side channel that         could aid padding-oracle-style attacks.

    CVE-2026-40194

        The SSH2 implementation compared incoming packet HMACs using a         variable-time string comparison, creating a timing side channel         on cryptographic material.

    CVE-2026-44167

        The ASN.1 decoder's 4096-byte Object Identifier limit (mitigating         CVE-2024-27355) was still large enough to allow an OID         amplification denial of service via crafted ASN.1 structures.

    CVE-2026-55599

        File_X509 could automatically fetch a URL from a certificate's         Authority Information Access extension without validating the         destination, allowing SSRF via a crafted certificate.

    For Debian 11 bullseye, these problems have been fixed in version     2.0.30-2+deb11u3.

    We recommend that you upgrade your php-phpseclib packages.
