IP address and port combination, with TLS 1.3 and OpenSSL, a previously authenticated attacker
can use session resumption to bypass client certificate authentication requirements on these
servers. This vulnerability arises when TLS session tickets are used and/or the SSL session cache
is used in the default virtual server and the default virtual server is performing client
certificate authentication. This issue affects both the NGINX http and NGINX stream modules.");
