CVE-2009-2666

Publication date 7 August 2009

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Medium

Why this priority?

socket.c in fetchmail before 6.3.11 does not properly handle a '\0' character in a domain name in the subject's Common Name (CN) field of an X.509 certificate, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof arbitrary SSL servers via a crafted certificate issued by a legitimate Certification Authority, a related issue to CVE-2009-2408.
