Descriptions

KDE Konqueror 3.5.5 and 3.95.00, 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, even though these fields cannot be examined in the product, which makes it easier for remote attackers to trick a user into accepting an invalid certificate for a spoofed web site.

KDE Konqueror 3.5.5 y 3.95.00, cuando un usuario acepta un certificado de servidor SSL basándose en el nombre de dominio CN del campo DN, considera el certificado como aceptado también para todos los nombres de dominios en los campos subjectAltName:dNSName, incluso aunque estos campos no pueden ser examinados en el producto, lo cual facilita a los atacantes remotos engañar al usuario para que acepte un certificado inválido para un sitio web falso.
