✅ Remediation

For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes described in this advisory, refer to: https://images.redhat.com/ Workaround: To mitigate this flaw, ensure the callback provided to the set_tlsext_servername_callback function is wrapped in a try/except block. This block should explicitly return a failure code instead of allowing the exception to propagate. Workaround: To mitigate this flaw, ensure the callback provided to the set_cookie_generate_callback function strictly limits the returned cookie string or byte sequence to under 256 bytes.
