Description
Summary
The server_hostname TLS SNI check can be bypassed when an existing connection is reused.
Impact
If an application makes multiple requests to the same domain, but with different per-request server_hostname parameters, then the later calls may succeed by reusing the existing connection when they should have been rejected due to the TLS SNI check.
Workaround
Disable keep_alive if you need to change the server_hostname check between requests.
