Summary
The Container Network Interface (CNI) project consists of a specification and libraries for writing plug-ins for configuring network interfaces in Linux containers, along with a number of supported plug-ins. CNI concerns itself only with network connectivity of containers and removing allocated resources when the container is deleted.
Security Fix(es):
* crypto/x509: golang: Denial of Service due to excessive resource consumption via crafted certificate (CVE-2025-61729)
* golang: net/url: Memory exhaustion in query parameter parsing in net/url (CVE-2025-61726)
* crypto/tls: Unexpected session resumption in crypto/tls (CVE-2025-68121)

Critical 9.1
Unexpected session resumption in crypto/tls
During session resumption in crypto/tls, if the underlying Config has its ClientCAs or RootCAs fields mutated between the initial handshake and the resumed handshake, the resumed handshake may succeed when it should have failed. This may happen when a user ca…

High 7.5
Memory exhaustion in query parameter parsing in net/url
The net/url package does not set a limit on the number of query parameters in a query. While the maximum size of query parameters in URLs is generally limited by the maximum request header size, the net/http.Request.ParseForm method can parse large URL-encode…

High 7.5
Excessive resource consumption when printing error string for host certificate validation in crypto/x509
Within HostnameError.Error(), when constructing an error string, there is no limit to the number of hosts that will be printed out. Furthermore, the error string is constructed by repeated string concatenation, leading to quadratic runtime. Therefore, a certi…
