CVE-2013-7449 not yet assigned priority: Debian including 1 source packages (hexchat), 4 status rows across 4 suites (bookworm, bullseye, sid, trixie): resolved 4.
The ssl_do_connect function in common/server.c in HexChat before 2.10.2, XChat, and XChat-GNOME does not verify that the server hostname matches a domain name in the X.509 certificate, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof SSL servers via an arbitrary valid certificate.
