My Stahlwille catalog calls it an 'XZN'. If you look very closely at a new bolt head you will see that instead of 12 - 90* angles for a 'triple square' the corners appear to be more like 85*.

My 10+ year old Wera brand 3/8ths drive tool works just fine as its splines have worn over the years and the same holds true for the CV bolts.
