  - Botan is a C++ cryptography library. Prior to version 3.11.1, the TLS 1.3 implementation allowed
    ApplicationData records to be processed prior to the Finished message being received. A server which is
    attempting to enforce client authentication via certificates can by bypassed by a client which entirely
    omits Certificate, CertificateVerify, and the Finished message and instead sends application data records.
    This vulnerability is fixed in 3.11.1. (CVE-2026-34582)
