CVE-2026-73581 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
Upgrade org.apache.tomcat.embed:tomcat-embed-core to version 9.0.122, 10.1.59, 11.0.26 or higher.
Overview
org.apache.tomcat.embed:tomcat-embed-core is a Core Tomcat implementation.
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Check for Certificate Revocation via the OpenSSLContext implementations in its OpenSSL and OpenSSL-FFM TLS components. When OpenSSL trust is used and the server key is held in a Java keystore, these implementations ignore configured CRLs; an attacker can present a revoked client certificate during TLS authentication and be treated as a valid user, gaining access to resources protected by client-certificate authentication.
