Descriptions

Mozilla Firefox before 35.0 and SeaMonkey before 2.32 do not consider the id-pkix-ocsp-nocheck extension in deciding whether to trust an OCSP responder, which makes it easier for remote attackers to obtain sensitive information by sniffing the network during a session in which there was an incorrect decision to accept a compromised and revoked certificate.

Mozilla Firefox anterior a 35.0 y SeaMonkey anterior a 2.32 no consideran la extensión id-pkix-ocsp-nocheck cuando deciden si confían de un contestador OCSP, lo que facilita a atacantes remotos obtener información sensible mediante la lectura de la red durante una sesión en la cual hubo una decisión incorrecta para aceptar un certificado comprometido y revocado.
