### GitHub Vulnerability Alerts
#### [CVE-2024-26130](https://togithub.com/pyca/cryptography/security/advisories/GHSA-6vqw-3v5j-54x4)
If `pkcs12.serialize_key_and_certificates` is called with both:
1. A certificate whose public key did not match the provided private key
2. An `encryption_algorithm` with `hmac_hash` set (via `PrivateFormat.PKCS12.encryption_builder().hmac_hash(...)`
Then a NULL pointer dereference would occur, crashing the Python process.
This has been resolved, and now a `ValueError` is properly raised.
