F-BOULDER-009: General hardening / testing. The recorded change avoids mutation of shared HTTP transport defaults; a narrower defect is not established here. Reviewed 24 Sep 2026. Mechanism assessed by 1seal.
Mechanism source for F-BOULDER-009
Security area (1seal assessment): Identity. Cloning the HTTP transport confines InsecureSkipVerify and other TLS options to the observer client instead of mutating global defaults. This is identity-verification configuration hardening, not proof of a reachable exploit. Reviewed 24 Sep 2026.

How this page groups evidence
This identifier groups recorded evidence; it is not an additional CVE, independent-vulnerability count or guarantee of vendor confirmation. Fixed code, released versions, attribution and independent discovery are distinct claims. Absent metadata means not recorded, not disproved. Counting rules.
