# CVE-2026-1584: Gnutls: gnutls: remote denial of service via crafted clienthello with invalid psk binder

Status: published. Published: 2026-04-09. Updated: 2026-11-04.

A flaw was found in gnutls. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability by sending a specially crafted ClientHello message with an invalid Pre-Shared Key (PSK) binder value during the TLS handshake. This can lead to a NULL pointer dereference, causing the server to crash and resulting in a remote Denial of Service (DoS) condition.

## Remediation
