Subject: cve request: docker swarm node Dos occurs when join a cluster
 failed using local CA certificate

Docker swarm mode is used to form a swarm, coordinating tasks. Once a machine joins, it becomes a Swarm Node. Nodes can either be worker nodes or manager nodes.
I found a vulnerability in docker of the latest version which could cause a Denial of Service, I created a CA certificate as the same way with docker, loading it when
execute the command "docker swarm join --token SWMTKN-1-xx ip:port", however , distrust certificate results the swarm manger failed to authenticate during
TLS handshake, trapping into infinite loop of session rebuilding , thus a remote node could not join the swarm cluster and even force to leave is in vain, this issue persists
after restarts docker daemon on the remote node.

# docker swarm init
Swarm initialized: current node (23m6ksr96whsvuo8lzokenju3) is now a manager.

To add a worker to this swarm, run the following command:
    docker swarm join \
    --token SWMTKN-1-30f6ibzpscqh05qqdog85ktr8ptcw7ttn4wy5cwixy1wfchhb9-aljewtdn5727g1pldxnevjh51 \
    xx.xx.xx.xx:2377

To add a manager to this swarm, run the following command:
    docker swarm join \
    --token SWMTKN-1-30f6ibzpscqh05qqdog85ktr8ptcw7ttn4wy5cwixy1wfchhb9-0p086z2sdbnpvognjmu76gpi6 \
    xx.xx.xx.xx :2377

Login in remote node ,create a CA certificate and private key as the docker’s way, then puts them to /var/lib/docker/swarm/certificate
and named with “docker-swarm-ca.xxx”, execute the following commands:
-----------------------------------------------------
# docker swarm join --token SWMTKN-1-30f6ibzpscqh05qqdog85ktr8ptcw7ttn4wy5cwixy1wfchhb9-aljewtdn5727g1pldxnevjh51 xx.xx.xx.xx:2377
Error response from daemon: Timeout was reached before node was joined. Attempt to join the cluster will continue in the background. Use "docker info" command to see the current swarm status of your node

Some debugging information of docker daemon.
