Red Hat: improper certificate validation
High7.4CVE-2026-15554 · Published Aug 11, 2026 · updated Sep 25, 2026
the Undertow AJP listener honours forged ssl_cert and is_ssl AJP attributes without requiring any shared-secret authentication. This enables an unauthenticated attacker with direct TCP access to port 8009 to bypass CLIENT-CERT authentication by injecting a forged X.509 certificate via the AJP protocol.
