CVE-2026-89135 is an improper certificate-validation vulnerability in wolfSSL 5.8.4 through 5.9.2. In builds with OpenSSL compatibility support and certificate support enabled, a failed X509_verify_cert call can permanently add an unverified, attacker-controlled certificate authority to the shared CertManager. Type-blind consumers of that CertManager, including native TLS, OCSP, CRL, and direct certificate-manager verification, can subsequently bypass certificate validation.

Medium-severity wolfSSL issue involving persistence of an unverified certificate authority.
A wolfSSL certificate-validation bypass in which a failed X509_verify_cert call can persist an unverified attacker-controlled CA in the shared CertManager. Subsequent certificate validation by affected sibling consumers—including native TLS, OCSP, CRL, and direct certificate-manager verification—can be bypassed.
