GoAhead TLS Flaws Allow Revoked Client Certificates and Enable Session Decryption

27 October 2026 at 13:59
The GoAhead embedded web server loaded a certificate revocation list into its default TLS backend but never turned revocation checking on, so a revoked client certificate could still pass login on affected setups.
