    "summary": "Mozilla security researcher Christian Holler discovered\nseveral issues while fuzzing the parsing of SSL certificates. Two of these\nissues were a result of using characters that are not UTF-8 in certificates when\nvarious functions expected all strings to be UTF-8 format. The third issue was a\nresult of using characters that were not ASCII in certificates while a function\nexpected only ASCII formatted text. All of these issues causes the certificates\nto be incorrectly parsed, leading to a potential inability to use valid SSL\ncertificates.",
