CVE-2026-27017

Description

A flaw was found in uTLS. When using GREASE Encrypted ClientHello (ECH), uTLS versions 1.6.0 through 1.8.0 may exhibit a fingerprint mismatch with Chrome. This occurs due to an inconsistent selection of cipher suites between the outer ClientHello and the ECH, potentially allowing a remote observer to distinguish the uTLS client from a standard Chrome browser. This could lead to a low impact information disclosure regarding the client's identity.
