Aliases CVE-2014-3596
Summary Improper Validation of Certificate with Host Mismatch The `getCN` function in Apache Axis does not properly 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 a certificate with a subject that specifies a common name in a field that is not the `CN` field.
