Summary

Apache Traffic Server from 8.0.0 through 8.1.11, from 9.0.0 through 9.2.15, from 10.0.0 through 10.1.4, and 10.2.0 is affected. Improper certificate validation (CWE-295) lets a TLS session resumed on one SNI virtual host skip re-checking the client certificate that the resumed host requires under its verify_client STRICT policy. A remote attacker with no privileges and no user interaction can exploit this over the network. The sources do not report exploitation.
