CVE-2020-36478

Description

An issue was discovered in Mbed TLS before 2.25.0 (and before 2.16.9 LTS and before 2.7.18 LTS). A NULL algorithm parameters entry looks identical to an array of REAL (size zero) and thus the certificate is considered valid. However, if the parameters do not match in any way, then the certificate should be considered invalid.

Priority: MEDIUM
CVSS v3: 7.5
Component: mbedtls
Publish Date: Aug 23, 2021
Related ID: --
CVSS v2: HIGH
Modified Date: Aug 28, 2021
