CVE-2013-7398

main/java/com/ning/http/client/AsyncHttpClientConfig.java en Async Http Client (también conocido como AHC o async-http-client) anterior a 1.9.0 no requiere una coincidencia de nombre de anfitrión durante la verificación de los certificados X.509, lo que permite a atacantes man-in-the-middle falsificar servidores HTTPS a través de un certificado válido arbitrario.

It was found that async-http-client did not verify that the server hostname matched the domain name in the subject's Common Name (CN) or subjectAltName field in X.509 certificates. This could allow a man-in-the-middle attacker to spoof an SSL server if they had a certificate that was valid for any domain name.

Red Hat JBoss Fuse, based on Apache ServiceMix, provides a small-footprint, flexible, open source enterprise service bus and integration platform. The following security fixes are addressed in this release: It was found that async-http-client would disable SSL/TLS certificate verification under certain conditions, for example if HTTPS communication also used client certificates. A man-in-the-middle attacker could use this flaw to spoof a valid certificate.
