    It was discovered that GnuTLS incorrectly handled exporting Subject Alternative Name (SAN) entries
    containing an otherName. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause GnuTLS to crash, resulting in a
    denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2025-32988)

    It was discovered that GnuTLS incorrectly handled parsing the Certificate Transparency (CT) Signed
    Certificate Timestamp (SCT) extension. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause GnuTLS to crash,
    resulting in a denial of service, or possibly obtain sensitive information. (CVE-2025-32989)

    It was discovered that the GnuTLS certtool utility incorrectly handled parsing certain template files. An
    attacker could use this issue to cause GnuTLS to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly
    execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2025-32990)

    Stefan Bhler discovered that GnuTLS incorrectly handled parsing certain template files. An attacker
    could possibly use this issue to cause GnuTLS to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2025-6395)

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