CVE-2026-55960
HighCVSS 7.5Exploitation Probability (EPSS)
Low risk4th percentile - higher than 4% of all known CVEs
Summary
The vulnerability allows an un-negotiated Raw Public Key (RFC 7250) to be accepted in place of an X.509 certificate, bypassing chain validation. This only affects builds with Raw Public Key support (HAVE_RPK) enabled, which is disabled by default but included with --enable-all.
Risk Assessment
The risk involves potential impersonation of a server or client without proper authentication, leading to man-in-the-middle attacks and compromise of communication confidentiality.
Recommendation
It is recommended to update to a version containing the fix, which defaults the expected type to X.509 when no type was negotiated. In the meantime, disable Raw Public Key support (HAVE_RPK) in the build configuration.

Improper neutralization of CRLF sequences in IXON VPN Client before version 1.4.7 allows an attacker to execute commands as root or SYSTEM. Configuration values accepted by the local service are written to a file later consumed by a privileged subprocess, without line-ending sequences being neutralized, which allows additional directives to be introduced into that file. The configuration interface accepts changes without authenticating or verifying the origin of the requester. The injected configuration persists on disk across restarts of the client and the operating system, and the VPN connection continues to function normally, so there is no behavioral change visible to the user.

Original NVD description (English source)
Un-negotiated Raw Public Key (RFC 7250) accepted in place of an X.509 certificate, bypassing chain validation. A raw public key has no chain, so ParseCertRelative() accepts it without performing any trust verification; it must therefore only be accepted when RPK was actually negotiated for that peer. The check now defaults the expected type to X.509 (per RFC 7250/8446) when no type was negotiated, comparing against the received server certificate type on the client and the selected client certificate type on the server, and rejects any mismatch, including an un-negotiated raw public key, with UNSUPPORTED_CERTIFICATE. Only affects builds with Raw Public Key support (HAVE_RPK) enabled - disabled by default in a standalone build, but included in --enable-all.
