expressions in certificate names. A remote attacker could create a
specially crafted certificate to cause a denial of service (via
application crash) or execute arbitrary code as the user invoking the
program. (CVE-2009-2404)
Moxie Marlinspike and Dan Kaminsky independently discovered that NSS
did not properly handle certificates with NULL characters in the
certificate name. An attacker could exploit this to perform a man in
the middle attack to view sensitive information or alter encrypted
communications. (CVE-2009-2408)
Dan Kaminsky discovered NSS would still accept certificates with MD2
hash signatures. As a result, an attacker could potentially create a
malicious trusted certificate to impersonate another site.
(CVE-2009-2409).
Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding
description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable
has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible
without introducing additional issues.
