CVE-2025-5025 - libcurl wolfSSL QUIC Certificate Pinning Bypass

CVE ID : CVE-2025-5025
Published : May 28, 2025, 7:15 a.m. | 1 hour, 31 minutes ago
Description : libcurl supports *pinning* of the server certificate public key for HTTPS transfers. Due to an omission, this check is not performed when connecting with QUIC for HTTP/3, when the TLS backend is wolfSSL. Documentation says the option works with wolfSSL, failing to specify that it does not for QUIC and HTTP/3. Since pinning makes the transfer succeed if the pin is fine, users could unwittingly connect to an impostor server without noticing.
Severity: 0.0 | NA
