Red Hat aligns with the CNA CVSS (6.7): exploitation requires both a non-canonical IPv4 host form and a certificate with a DNS SAN for the canonical IP string that is already trusted by the client (Privileges Required: High relative to a generic network attacker without such a cert). On Red Hat platforms using glibc, the resolver accepts these spellings, so that part of the prerequisite is met. Successful abuse can confuse TLS endpoint identity with high confidentiality and integrity impact for the affected connection, but the trusted-cert barrier keeps the overall rating Moderate rather than Important.
