I figured this presentation might be of interest to this list: https://i.blackhat.com/eu-18/Thu-Dec-6/eu-18-Heftrig-Off-Path-Attacks-Against-PKI.pdf It seems they found 5 (unspecified) public CAs out of 17 tested were vulnerable to this attack, which can be performed by an off-path attacker.

Thank you for this report. We've verified disclosure of the private key for this certificate and have notified the customer that their certificate will be revoked. Due to the large customer impact, we're provided them 24 hours to get new client executables prepared and ready for download by
