Official description

Traefik before v2.11.55 and v3.0.0 through v3.7.10 contain a TLS option conflict resolution vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to bypass client-certificate authentication by creating conflicting TLS options on multi-host routers. Attackers can reach protected backends by exploiting shared TLS resolution across multiple hostnames in a single router rule, causing the strict mTLS requirement to fall back to default options for all hosts.
