- When multiple server blocks are configured to share the same IP address and port, an attacker can use
session resumption to bypass client certificate authentication requirements on these servers. This
vulnerability arises when TLS Session Tickets
https://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_ssl_module.html#ssl_session_ticket_key are used and/or the SSL
session cache https://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_ssl_module.html#ssl_session_cache are used in the
default server and the default server is performing client certificate authentication. Note: Software
versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated. (CVE-2025-23419)
Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
