CVE-2026-6899: Systerel S2OPC improper certificate revocation check in CycloneCrypto

CVE-2026-6899 · Severity: medium · CVSS 5.6 · Published 2026-06-09

A security flaw exists in the S2OPC library, which is used for secure industrial communications (OPC UA). The software fails to properly check all lists of revoked security certificates, potentially allowing a device or user with a cancelled certificate to maintain a connection to the server. This could lead to unauthorized access or the continued operation of compromised devices that should have been blocked from the network.

Technologies: Systerel S2OPC. Vendors: Systerel.

Technical details

The vulnerability is classified as an improper check for certificate revocation (CWE-299) within the `crt_verifycrl_and_check_revocation` function of the S2OPC CycloneCrypto wrapper. The implementation incorrectly terminates its search after finding the first matching CRL for a Certificate Authority, ignoring subsequent valid CRLs that may contain the certificate's revocation status. An attacker using a revoked certificate could successfully establish or maintain an OPC UA connection if the revocation entry exists in a CRL not processed by the library. The issue was identified in commit a442f472 and requires a fix to iterate through all associated CRLs to ensure comprehensive revocation verification.
