How to fix?

Upgrade Alpine:3.20 openjdk11 to version 11.0.15_p10-r0 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream openjdk11 package and not the openjdk11 package as distributed by Alpine. See How to fix? for Alpine:3.20 relevant fixed versions and status.

Accepting arbitrary Subject Alternative Name (SAN) types, unless a PKI is specifically defined to use a particular SAN type, can result in bypassing name-constrained intermediates. Node.js < 12.22.9, < 14.18.3, < 16.13.2, and < 17.3.1 was accepting URI SAN types, which PKIs are often not defined to use. Additionally, when a protocol allows URI SANs, Node.js did not match the URI correctly.Versions of Node.js with the fix for this disable the URI SAN type when checking a certificate against a hostname. This behavior can be reverted through the --security-revert command-line option.
