Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Stack-based Buffer Overflow via the mgs_cert_verify function in the gnutls_hooks.c file. An attacker can cause a segmentation fault and potentially disrupt service by sending a client certificate chain that exceeds the expected array size.

Note: This is only exploitable if client certificate verification is enabled in the server configuration.
