Title
Missing Validation of Self-Signed Certificates in Altium Designer Allows Man-in-the-Middle Attacks
Summary
Altium Designer version 24.9.0 does not validate self-signed server certificates for cloud connections. An attacker capable of performing a man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack could exploit this issue to intercept or manipulate network traffic, potentially exposing authentication credentials or sensitive design data.
