Descriptions

PayPal Invoicing 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.

PayPal Invoicing 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.
