CVE-2026-63374 PUBLISHED

AnyIO: TLSStream IDNA 2003 host name encoding enables potential TLS certificate spoofing

Assigner: GitHub_M
Reserved: 16.07.2026 Published: 22.09.2026 Updated: 22.09.2026

AnyIO is a high level asynchronous concurrency and networking framework that works on top of either Trio or asyncio. Prior to 4.14.2, connect_tcp() and TLSStream.wrap() can validate internationalized host names after the standard library converts them with IDNA 2003 instead of IDNA 2008. When a connection to a non-ASCII domain is hijacked or redirected, an attacker can obtain a legitimate certificate for the different ASCII hostname produced by IDNA 2003 and present it to the client, causing the malicious endpoint's certificate to validate. This issue is fixed in version 4.14.2.
