Improper Certificate Validation in Node.js 10, 12, and 13 causes the process to abort when sending a crafted X.509 certificate
Una Comprobación Inapropiada del Certificado en Node.js versiones 10, 12 y 13, causa que el proceso se aborte cuando se envía un certificado X.509 diseñado.
An encoding error flaw exists in the Node.js code that is used to read a peer certificate in the TLS client authentication. An attacker can use this flaw to crash the process used to handle TLS client authentication.
