What is CVE-2025-14831?

A vulnerability in GnuTLS allows an attacker to exploit the system's processing capabilities, leading to denial of service (DoS) through specially crafted malicious certificates. These certificates may include a large number of name constraints and subject alternative names (SANs), resulting in excessive consumption of CPU and memory resources. This issue can severely impact performance and availability, making it crucial for affected users to implement the latest security patches.
