Description

Double free vulnerability in the gnutls_x509_ext_import_proxy function in GnuTLS before 3.3.26 and 3.5.x before 3.5.8 allows remote attackers to have unspecified impact via crafted policy language information in an X.509 certificate with a Proxy Certificate Information extension.
A double-free flaw was found in the way GnuTLS parsed certain X.509 certificates with Proxy Certificate Information extension. An attacker could create a specially-crafted certificate which, when processed by an application compiled against GnuTLS, could cause that application to crash.
