Descriptions

Apache Axis2/Java 1.6.2 and earlier does not verify that the server hostname matches a domain name in the subject's Common Name (CN) or subjectAltName field of the X.509 certificate, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof SSL servers via an arbitrary valid certificate.

Apache Axis2/Java v1.6.2 y anteriores, no comprueba si el nombre del servidor coincide con un nombre de dominio en el Common Name (CN) del asunto o el campo subjectAltName del certificado X.509, lo que permite a atacantes man-in-the-middle falsificar servidores SSL a través de un certificado válido arbitrario.
