  service condition due to an out of bounds read in memory.

  - CVE-2016-6892 (Free of Memory not on the Heap): The x509FreeExtensions() function does not
  properly parse X.509 certificates. A specially crafted certificate may cause a free operation on
  unallocated memory, resulting in a denial of service condition.");
