CVE-2026-28390 is a denial-of-service vulnerability in OpenSSL's CMS EnvelopedData processing. When an application processes a crafted CMS EnvelopedData message containing KeyTransportRecipientInfo that uses RSA-OAEP encryption, OpenSSL examines the optional parameters field of the RSA-OAEP SourceFunc algorithm identifier without first verifying that the field is present. If the field is absent, the code can dereference a NULL pointer and terminate the process. The issue affects applications and services that invoke CMS_decrypt() on attacker-controlled CMS data, including S/MIME handling and other CMS-based protocols. The vulnerable code is outside the OpenSSL FIPS module boundary, and the FIPS modules for the affected supported branches are not impacted.
