    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)

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