OpenSSL reports:

During certificate verification, OpenSSL (starting from version
1.0.1n and 1.0.2b) will attempt to find an alternative certificate
chain if the first attempt to build such a chain fails. An error
in the implementation of this logic can mean that an attacker could
cause certain checks on untrusted certificates to be bypassed,
such as the CA flag, enabling them to use a valid leaf certificate
to act as a CA and “issue” an invalid certificate.
