CVE-2014-3596 low priority: Debian including 1 source packages (axis), 5 status rows across 5 suites (bookworm, bullseye, forky, sid, trixie): resolved 5.
The getCN function in Apache Axis 1.4 and earlier 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. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2012-5784.
