CVE-2026-14457 is a NULL pointer dereference in OpenSSL TLS signature-algorithm selection for RFC 7250 Raw Public Key (RPK) deployments. It occurs when a TLS client or server has RPK support enabled and is configured with only a local private key, without an associated certificate, and the remote peer negotiates raw public keys while supplying the normally omitted signature_algorithms_cert TLS extension. The vulnerable path dereferences the absent certificate.
