An issue was discovered in Mbed TLS before 2.25.0 (and before 2.16.9 LTS
and before 2.7.18 LTS). A NULL algorithm parameters entry looks identical
to an array of REAL (size zero) and thus the certificate is considered
valid. However, if the parameters do not match in any way, then the
certificate should be considered invalid.
