NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream prometheus-node-exporter package and not the prometheus-node-exporter package as distributed by Wolfi.

Validating certificate chains which use policies is unexpectedly inefficient when certificates in the chain contain a very large number of policy mappings, possibly causing denial of service. This only affects validation of otherwise trusted certificate chains, issued by a root CA in the VerifyOptions.Roots CertPool, or in the system certificate pool.
