+	  <ul>
+	    <li>If a malicious peer supplies a certificate with a specially
+	      crafted secp224k1 public key, then an attacker can cause the
+	      server or client to attempt to free block of memory held on
+	      stack.  Depending on the platform, this could result in a Denial
+	      of Service (client crash) or potentially could be exploited to
+	      allow remote code execution with the same privileges as the host
+	      application.</li>
+	    <li>If the client and the server both support MD5 and the client
+	      can be tricked to authenticate to a malicious server, then the
+	      malicious server can impersonate the client. To launch this man
+	      in the middle attack, the adversary has to compute a
+	      chosen-prefix MD5 collision in real time. This is very expensive
+	      computationally, but can be practical.  Depending on the
+	      platform, this could result in a Denial of Service (client crash)
+	      or potentially could be exploited to allow remote code execution
+	      with the same privileges as the host application.</li>
+	    <li>A bug in the logic of the parsing of a PEM encoded Certificate
+	      Revocation List in mbedtls_x509_crl_parse() can result in an
+	      infinite loop. In versions before 1.3.10 the same bug results in
+	      an infinite recursion stack overflow that usually crashes the
+	      application.  Methods and means of acquiring the CRLs is not part
+	      of the TLS handshake and in the strict TLS setting this
+	      vulnerability cannot be triggered remotely. The vulnerability
+	      cannot be triggered unless the application explicitely calls
+	      mbedtls_x509_crl_parse() or mbedtls_x509_crl_parse_file()on a PEM
+	      formatted CRL of untrusted origin. In which case the
+	      vulnerability can be exploited to launch a denial of service
+	      attack against the application.</li>
