When an invalid public key is used to create an x509 certificate using the
crypto.X509Certificate() API a non-expect termination occurs making it
susceptible to DoS attacks when the attacker could force interruptions of
application processing, as the process terminates when accessing public key
info of provided certificates from user code. The current context of the
users will be gone, and that will cause a DoS scenario. This vulnerability
affects all active Node.js versions v16, v18, and, v20.
