When a certificate bundle contains multiple PEM blocks\u2014such as an intermediate and a root certificate\u2014the additional certificates are ignored, causing certificate chain validation to silently fail.

An attacker could exploit this flaw via remote network traffic by presenting a multi\u2011certificate PEM bundle to an Oxia instance; the server would silently reject the chain, causing denial\u2011of\u2011service conditions for mutual TLS\u2011protected endpoints.
