Summary
CVE-2026-6412 is a low-severity Use of a Broken or Risky Cryptographic Algorithm (CWE-327) vulnerability in Wolfssl Wolfssl. Its CVSS base score is 2.3 (Low).
Operationally, ranked at the 1th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SC-13 (Cryptographic Protection) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Mitigating Controls
Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
SC-13 requires selection and implementation of specific cryptography types, directly stopping use of broken algorithms.
Mitigating Controls (ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Annex A) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
A.5.31 only requires identifying, reviewing and considering legal/regulatory/contractual requirements (including crypto restrictions); it does not itself stop use of a broken algorithm or block its exploitation
A.5.6 only promotes membership in groups to receive early warnings, advisories, and specialist advice about vulnerabilities (including risky crypto); it does not stop exploitation of an already-present broken algorithm, which requires other controls (e.g. A.8.24) to act.
A.8.24's policy, algorithm selection, strength/quality rules, approved standards and key management directly stop use of broken/risky algorithms in most cases; the bounded remainder is non-compliant implementations or legacy systems grandfathered under the clause's own regulatory and transition guidance.
Hardening callouts derived
DISA STIG baselines are authored against specific weaknesses. Where this CVE cites a broad weakness class, the mapping is not asserted at that abstraction (owner ruling, 2026-09-25: grade only at Base and below), so no rule is shown here rather than a rule shown against the wrong grain.
