Description

Isync 0.4 before 1.0.6, 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.

Solution(s)

  • gentoo-linux-upgrade-net-mail-isync
