ETK-2026-2560Zero's internal tracking ID, independent of the CVE number.
waiting for further signalsZero needs more public information before it can validate it.description
H2O reverse proxies using TLS 1.3 may accept an HTTPS upstream certificate without confirming that its name matches the configured upstream. A network-positioned attacker with a certificate trusted for a different hostname could impersonate that upstream and inspect or modify proxied traffic. The issue applies when proxy.ssl.verify-peer: ON is enabled and TLS 1.3 is negotiated.
mitigation
Upgrade h2o to commits ae55300 and above or later.
fixed in commits ae55300 and above
outcome
Contextual: an exploit technique exists, but no deterministic check could cover this one.
