Description Adam Mariš 2017-08-31 09:43:04 UTC
ARM mbed TLS before 1.3.21, 2.1.x before 2.1.9 and 2.x before 2.6.0, if optional
authentication is configured, allows remote attackers to bypass peer
authentication via an X.509 certificate chain with many intermediates.
NOTE: although mbed TLS was formerly known as PolarSSL, the releases
shipped with the PolarSSL name are not affected.
