Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream go1.25-openssl package and not the go1.25-openssl package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.6 relevant fixed versions and status.

Within HostnameError.Error(), when constructing an error string, there is no limit to the number of hosts that will be printed out. Furthermore, the error string is constructed by repeated string concatenation, leading to quadratic runtime. Therefore, a certificate provided by a malicious actor can result in excessive resource consumption.
