Vulnerability Name:

CVE-2007-6592 (CCN-38565)

Assigned:2007-11-18
Published:2007-11-18
Updated:2018-10-15
Summary:Apple Safari 2, when a user accepts an SSL server certificate on the basis of the CN domain name in the DN field, regards the certificate as also accepted for all domain names in subjectAltName:dNSName fields, which makes it easier for remote attackers to trick a user into accepting an invalid certificate for a spoofed web site.
