Two of these\nissues were a result of using characters that are not UTF-8 in certificates when\nvarious functions expected all strings to be UTF-8 format. The third issue was a\nresult of using characters that were not ASCII in certificates while a function\nexpected only ASCII formatted text. All of these issues causes the certificates\nto be incorrectly parsed, leading to a potential inability to use valid SSL\ncertificates.", "aliases": [ { "alias": "CVE-2014-1558" } ], "fixed_packages": [ { "url": "http://public2.vulnerablecode.io/api/packages/1142?format=api", "purl": "pkg:mozilla/Firefox@31.0.0", "is_vulnerable": false, "affected_by_vulnerabilities": [], "resource_url": "http://public2.vulnerablecode.io/packages/pkg:mozilla/Firefox@31.0.0" }, { "url": "http://public2.vulnerablecode.io/api/packages/1143?format=api", "purl": "pkg:mozilla/Thunderbird@31.0.0", "is_vulnerable": false, "affected_by_vulnerabilities": [], "resource_url": "http://public2.vulnerablecode.io/packages/pkg:mozilla/Thunderbird@31.0.0" } ], "affected_packages": [], "references": [ { "reference_url": "https://access.redhat.com/hydra/rest/securitydata/cve/CVE-2014-1558.json", "reference_id": "", "reference_type": "", "scores": [], "url": "https://access.redhat.com/hydra/rest/securitydata/cve/CVE-2014-1558.json" }, { "reference_url": "https://api.first.org/data/v1/epss?cve=CVE-2014-1558", "reference_id": "", "reference_type": "", "scores": [ { "value": "0.00562", "scoring_system": "epss", "scoring_elements": "0.68692", "published_at": "2026-06-04T12:55:00Z" } ], "url": "https://api.first.org/data/v1/epss?cve=CVE-2014-1558" }, { "reference_url": "https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1121480", "reference_id": "1121480", "reference_type": "", "scores": [], "url": "https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1121480" }, { "reference_url": "https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-1558", "reference_id": "CVE-2014-1558", "reference_type": "", "scores": [], "url": "https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-1558" }, { "reference_url": "https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/security/advisories/mfsa2014-65", "reference_id": "mfsa2014-65", "reference_type": "", "scores": [ { "value": "none", "scoring_system": "generic_textual", "scoring_elements": "" } ], "url": "https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/security/advisories/mfsa2014-65" } ], "weaknesses": [], "exploits": [], "severity_range_score": null, "exploitability": null, "weighted_severity": null, "risk_score": null, "resource_url": "http://public2.vulnerablecode.io/vulnerabilities/VCID-tdfj-x912-a3cc" }
