5.9
An issue in gnutls v3.8.13 causes legitimate CA certificates to be rejected, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS). NOTE: this is disputed by multiple parties because the behavior does not offer a new ability for an adversary to conduct a denial of service, and because the product can reasonably choose to enforce a dNSName constraint against Common Name when Subject Alternative Name is absent.
