Security firm flags eight eMudhra digital ID cards linked to a bug

On 21 October 2026, Cisco Talos said it knew of eight intermediate certificates, middle-layer digital ID cards, belonging to eMudhra, a trusted issuer. It linked them to a bug in Go's certificate-checking code that fails to reject cards from a compromised issuer. Browsers blocked affected sites and software fixes followed. Chrome found no fake certificates in public logs.
