  "title": "X.509 name-constraints validation bypass in node-forge",
  "summary": "node-forge versions before 1.4.3 can accept certificate chains that violate non-critical X.509 name constraints during certificate-chain or forge.tls peer verification. An attacker who controls, or can obtain a certificate from, a constrained CA under a trusted root may impersonate names outside that CA's permitted namespace.",
  "mitigation": "Upgrade node-forge to version 1.4.3. Until upgrading, reject chains beneath CAs carrying the X.509 nameConstraints extension in the certificate-verification callback, and review trust anchors separately.",
