auth-tls-scrict is used to define whether a misconfigured TLS based authentication should always fail, i.e. defines if misconfigured should ignore the configuration or create a fake configuration to protect the backend.

Historically HAProxy Ingress alerts and discards wrong configuration but this could lead to a security issue on configurations that protect applications. Strict option was added in v0.8 as false to preserve backward compatibility, and finally changed its default to true to improve security.
