Emerging Threat: (CVE-2026-29145) Apache Tomcat Authentication Bypass
CVE-2026-29145 is an authentication bypass flaw in Apache Tomcat and Apache Tomcat Native affecting the CLIENT_CERT authentication path. When OCSP soft-fail is disabled, certain code paths fail to treat an OCSP check failure as a hard authentication failure, allowing a connecting client to reach protected resources without presenting a valid, revocation-checked certificate.
