CBC-MAC variable-length weakness with MAC size greater than the encryption block size

The title mostly explains it; CBC-MAC variable-length weakness with MAC size greater than the encryption block size I've seen that by having the pairs $(M,T_m)$ and $(N,T_n)$, we can generate a third … message $M'$ whose CBC-MAC will also be $T_n$ by simply doing $M'=M \mathbin\| ((n_1 \oplus T_m) \mathbin\| n_2 \ldots n_x)$ My question is how does this work when the MAC is of greater size than the …
