There is no fixed version for Centos:9 osbuild-composer-worker.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream osbuild-composer-worker package and not the osbuild-composer-worker package as distributed by Centos.
See How to fix? for Centos:9 relevant fixed versions and status.
Extremely large RSA keys in certificate chains can cause a client/server to expend significant CPU time verifying signatures. With fix, the size of RSA keys transmitted during handshakes is restricted to <= 8192 bits. Based on a survey of publicly trusted RSA keys, there are currently only three certificates in circulation with keys larger than this, and all three appear to be test certificates that are not actively deployed. It is possible there are larger keys in use in private PKIs, but we target the web PKI, so causing breakage here in the interests of increasing the default safety of users of crypto/tls seems reasonable.
