✅ Remediation

For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes described in this advisory, refer to: https://images.redhat.com/ Workaround: No broadly applicable mitigation is available. If an affected client application provides a configuration setting for OCSP response checking, operators can temporarily disable it where their certificate revocation policy permits. This blocks the vulnerable response-checking path but removes OCSP-based revocation checks. Clients that must keep OCSP response checking enabled remain exposed.
