certificateparsing

About this tag
The certificateparsing tag covers vulnerabilities and security issues related to the parsing of digital certificates and cryptographic keys. Content under this tag discusses flaws in libraries such as GnuTLS and OpenSSL that can be triggered by crafted certificates, leading to denial-of-service, memory corruption, or code execution. Topics include CVE-2025-32988 (a double-free in GnuTLS SAN parsing), CVE-2022-0778 (an infinite loop in OpenSSL certificate parsing), and Siemens BFCClient OpenSSL flaws. The tag focuses on the technical root causes of parsing bugs, their operational impact on industrial and enterprise systems, and the importance of patching and mitigation for affected products.
