TITLE

Apple Safari Impersonated Web Vulnerability to accept invalid site certificate

Trust: 0.8

sources: JVNDB: JVNDB-2007-003046

DESCRIPTION

Apple Safari 2, when a user accepts an SSL server certificate on the basis of the CN domain name in the DN field, regards the certificate as also accepted for all domain names in subjectAltName:dNSName fields, which makes it easier for remote attackers to trick a user into accepting an invalid certificate for a spoofed web site. Safari is prone to a remote security vulnerability
