"It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2023-2025-1334 advisory.

    crypto/x509: excluded subdomain constraint does not restrict wildcard SANs

    An excluded subdomain constraint in a certificate chain does not restrict the usage of wildcard SANs in
    the leaf certificate. For example a constraint that excludes the subdomain test.example.com does not
    prevent a leaf certificate from claiming the SAN *.example.com. (CVE-2025-61727)

    Within HostnameError.Error(), when constructing an error string, there is no limit to the number of hosts
    that will be printed out. Furthermore, the error string is constructed by repeated string concatenation,
    leading to quadratic runtime. Therefore, a certificate provided by a malicious actor can result in
    excessive resource consumption. (CVE-2025-61729)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the tested product security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
