CVE-2025-23419
Description
A flaw was found in nginx. When name-based virtual hosts are configured to share the same IP address and port combination with TLS 1.3 and OpenSSL, a previously authenticated attacker can use session resumption to bypass client certificate authentication requirements on these servers. This vulnerability arises when TLS session tickets are used, the SSL session cache is used in the default virtual server, and the default virtual server performs client certificate authentication.
Mitigation
Mitigation is either unavailable or does not meet Red Hat Product Security standards for usability, deployment, applicability, or stability.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
