CVE-2026-24734

Red Hat Security Advisory: Red Hat Hardened Images RPMs bug fix and enhancement update

Description

A flaw was found in Apache Tomcat. When an Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) responder is used, the Tomcat Native component, and Tomcat's FFM port of the Tomcat Native code, does not properly verify or check the freshness of the OCSP response. This improper input validation vulnerability could allow an attacker to bypass certificate revocation checks, potentially leading to the acceptance of revoked certificates.
