CVE-2026-73581 is an improper certificate-revocation validation flaw in Apache Tomcat. The OpenSSL and OpenSSL-FFM TLS implementations ignore certificate revocation lists when the applicable certificate uses a keystore. This can prevent Tomcat from enforcing configured CRL-based revocation status during TLS certificate validation. Affected versions are Tomcat 11.0.0-M1 through 11.0.25, 10.1.0-M1 through 10.1.58, and 9.0.0-M1 through 9.0.121. Tomcat 8.5.0 through 8.5.100 is also known to be affected, and other unsupported versions may be affected.
