Python Twisted 14.0 trustRoot is not respected in HTTP client

Savitech driver packages for Windows silently install a self-signed certificate into the Trusted Root Certification Authorities store, aka "Inaudible Subversion."

software-properties was vulnerable to a person-in-the-middle attack due to incorrect TLS certificate validation in softwareproperties/ppa.py. software-properties didn't check TLS certificates under python2 and only checked certificates under python3 if a valid certificate bundle was provided. Fixed in software-properties version 0.92.

The kantan netprint App for iOS 2.0.2 and earlier does not verify X.509 certificates from servers, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof servers and obtain sensitive information via a crafted certificate.

It was found that Satellite 5 configured with SSL/TLS for the PostgreSQL backend failed to correctly validate X.509 server certificate host name fields. A man-in-the-middle attacker could use this flaw to spoof a PostgreSQL server using a specially crafted X.509 certificate.

X509 certificate verification was not correctly implemented in the IP Intelligence Subscription and IP Intelligence feed-list features, and thus the remote server's identity is not properly validated in F5 BIG-IP 12.0.0-12.1.2, 11.6.0-11.6.2, or 11.5.0-11.5.5.

Dell Networking OS10 versions prior to 10.4.3.0 contain a vulnerability in the Phone Home feature which does not properly validate the server's certificate authority during TLS handshake. Use of an invalid or malicious certificate could potentially allow an attacker to spoof a trusted entity by using a man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack.

The X509_V_FLAG_X509_STRICT flag enables additional security checks of the certificates present in a certificate chain. It is not set by default. Starting from OpenSSL version 1.1.1h a check to disallow certificates in the chain that have explicitly encoded elliptic curve parameters was added as an additional strict check. An error in the implementation of this check meant that the result of a previous check to confirm that certificates in the chain are valid CA certificates was overwritten. This effectively bypasses the check that non-CA certificates must not be able to issue other certificates. If a "purpose" has been configured then there is a subsequent opportunity for checks that the certificate is a valid CA. All of the named "purpose" values implemented in libcrypto perform this check. Therefore, where a purpose is set the certificate chain will still be rejected even when the strict flag has been used. A purpose is set by default in libssl client and server certificate verification routines, but it can be overridden or removed by an application. In order to be affected, an application must explicitly set the X509_V_FLAG_X509_STRICT verification flag and either not set a purpose for the certificate verification or, in the case of TLS client or server applications, override the default purpose. OpenSSL versions 1.1.1h and newer are affected by this issue. Users of these versions should upgrade to OpenSSL 1.1.1k. OpenSSL 1.0.2 is not impacted by this issue. Fixed in OpenSSL 1.1.1k (Affected 1.1.1h-1.1.1j).

IBM QRadar SIEM 7.2.8 and 7.3 does not validate, or incorrectly validates, a certificate. This weakness might allow an attacker to spoof a trusted entity by using a man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack. IBM X-force ID: 133120.

The komoot GmbH "Komoot - Cycling & Hiking Maps" app before 9.3.2 -- aka komoot-cycling-hiking-maps/id447374873 -- for iOS does not verify X.509 certificates from SSL servers, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof servers and obtain sensitive information via a crafted certificate.

The AWV component of Mitel MiCollab before 9.3 could allow an attacker to perform a Man-In-the-Middle attack due to improper TLS negotiation. A successful exploit could allow an attacker to view and modify data.

Due to an error in a third-party dependency the ssl flags used for setting up a TLS connection to a server are overwitten with wrong settings. This results in a missing validation of the server certificate and thus in a possible TLS MITM szenario.

When linking a Nessus scanner or agent to Tenable.io or other manager, Nessus 6.x before 6.11 does not verify the manager's TLS certificate when making the initial outgoing connection. This could allow man-in-the-middle attacks.

Google Chrome before 18.0.1025.142 does not properly check X.509 certificates before use of a SPDY proxy, which might allow man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof servers or obtain sensitive information via a crafted certificate.

The Motorola MBP853 firmware does not correctly validate server certificates. This allows for a Man in The Middle (MiTM) attack to take place between a Motorola MBP853 camera and the servers it communicates with. In one such instance, it was identified that the device was downloading what appeared to be a client certificate.

TLS hostname verification when using the Apache ActiveMQ Client before 5.15.6 was missing which could make the client vulnerable to a MITM attack between a Java application using the ActiveMQ client and the ActiveMQ server. This is now enabled by default.

A vulnerability in the certificate management subsystem of Cisco AnyConnect Network Access Manager and of Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client for iOS, Mac OS X, Android, Windows, and Linux could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to bypass the TLS certificate check when downloading certain configuration files. The vulnerability is due to improper use of Simple Certificate Enrollment Protocol and improper server certificate validation. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by preparing malicious profile and localization files for Cisco AnyConnect to use. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to remotely change the configuration profile, a certificate, or the localization data used by AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client. Cisco Bug IDs: CSCvh23141.

In F5 BIG-IP PEM 12.1.0 through 12.1.2 when downloading the Type Allocation Code (TAC) database file via HTTPS, the server's certificate is not verified. Attackers in a privileged network position may be able to launch a man-in-the-middle attack against these connections. TAC databases are used in BIG-IP PEM for Device Type and OS (DTOS) and Tethering detection. Customers not using BIG-IP PEM, not configuring downloads of TAC database files, or not using HTTP for that download are not affected.

Multiple vulnerabilities in Cisco Data Center Network Manager (DCNM) could allow an attacker to spoof a trusted host or construct a man-in-the-middle attack to extract sensitive information or alter certain API requests. These vulnerabilities are due to insufficient certificate validation when establishing HTTPS requests with the affected device. For more information about these vulnerabilities, see the Details section of this advisory.

Affected versions of CODESYS Git in Versions prior to V1.1.0.0 lack certificate validation in HTTPS handshakes. CODESYS Git does not implement certificate validation by default, so it does not verify that the server provides a valid and trusted HTTPS certificate. Since the certificate of the server to which the connection is made is not properly verified, the server connection is vulnerable to a man-in-the-middle attack.

X509 certificate verification was not correctly implemented in the early access "user id" feature in the F5 BIG-IP Advanced Firewall Manager versions 13.0.0, 12.1.0-12.1.2, and 11.6.0-11.6.2, and thus did not properly validate the remote server's identity on certain versions of BIG-IP.

A vulnerability in the Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) integration feature of the Cisco DNA Center Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to gain unauthorized access to sensitive data. The vulnerability is due to an incomplete validation of the X.509 certificate used when establishing a connection between DNA Center and an ISE server. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by supplying a crafted certificate and could then intercept communications between the ISE and DNA Center. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to view and alter sensitive information that the ISE maintains about clients that are connected to the network.

lib/oauth/consumer.rb in the oauth-ruby gem through 0.5.4 for Ruby does not verify server X.509 certificates if a certificate bundle cannot be found, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof servers and obtain sensitive information.

ALPACA is an application layer protocol content confusion attack, exploiting TLS servers implementing different protocols but using compatible certificates, such as multi-domain or wildcard certificates. A MiTM attacker having access to victim's traffic at the TCP/IP layer can redirect traffic from one subdomain to another, resulting in a valid TLS session. This breaks the authentication of TLS and cross-protocol attacks may be possible where the behavior of one protocol service may compromise the other at the application layer.

OpenVPN 3 Core Library version 3.6 and 3.6.1 allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to bypass the certificate authentication by issuing an unrelated server certificate using the same hostname found in the verify-x509-name option in a client configuration.

Cerulean Studios Trillian 3.1 Basic does not check SSL certificates during MSN authentication, which allows remote attackers to obtain MSN credentials via a man-in-the-middle attack with a spoofed SSL certificate.

TLS session reuse can lead to host certificate verification bypass in node version < 12.18.0 and < 14.4.0.

Improper certificate validation for certain connections in the Bosch Smart Home System App for iOS prior to version 9.17.1 potentially allows to intercept video contents by performing a man-in-the-middle attack.

In JetBrains IntelliJ IDEA before 2019.3, some Maven repositories were accessed via HTTP instead of HTTPS.

In versions 3.0.0-3.5.0, 2.0.0-2.9.0, and 1.0.1, when users run the command displayed in NGINX Controller user interface (UI) to fetch the agent installer, the server TLS certificate is not verified.

In versions 15.0.0-15.1.0.1, 14.1.0-14.1.2.3, 13.1.0-13.1.3.4, 12.1.0-12.1.5.1, and 11.6.1-11.6.5.2, the BIG-IP Client or Server SSL profile ignores revoked certificates, even when a valid CRL is present. This impacts SSL/TLS connections and may result in a man-in-the-middle attack on the connections.

The kantan netprint App for Android 2.0.3 and earlier does not verify X.509 certificates from servers, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof servers and obtain sensitive information via a crafted certificate.

iSM client versions from V5.1 prior to V12.1 running on NEC Storage Manager or NEC Storage Manager Express does not verify a server certificate properly, which allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to eavesdrop on an encrypted communication or alter the communication via a crafted certificate.

In versions of NGINX Controller prior to 3.2.0, communication between NGINX Controller and NGINX Plus instances skip TLS verification by default.

The netprint App for iOS 3.2.3 and earlier does not verify X.509 certificates from servers, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof servers and obtain sensitive information via a crafted certificate.

A flaw was found in all Openshift Enterprise versions using the openshift elasticsearch plugin. An attacker with knowledge of the given name used to authenticate and access Elasticsearch can later access it without the token, bypassing authentication. This attack also requires that the Elasticsearch be configured with an external route, and the data accessed is limited to the indices.

In SaltStack Salt before 3002.5, when authenticating to services using certain modules, the SSL certificate is not always validated.

Avast AntiTrack before 1.5.1.172 and AVG Antitrack before 2.0.0.178 proxies traffic to HTTPS sites but does not validate certificates, and thus a man-in-the-middle can host a malicious website using a self-signed certificate. No special action necessary by the victim using AntiTrack with "Allow filtering of HTTPS traffic for tracking detection" enabled. (This is the default configuration.)

A vulnerability in the SSL implementation of the Cisco Intelligent Proximity solution could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to view or alter information shared on Cisco Webex video devices and Cisco collaboration endpoints if the products meet the conditions described in the Vulnerable Products section. The vulnerability is due to a lack of validation of the SSL server certificate received when establishing a connection to a Cisco Webex video device or a Cisco collaboration endpoint. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by using man in the middle (MITM) techniques to intercept the traffic between the affected client and an endpoint, and then using a forged certificate to impersonate the endpoint. Depending on the configuration of the endpoint, an exploit could allow the attacker to view presentation content shared on it, modify any content being presented by the victim, or have access to call controls. This vulnerability does not affect cloud registered collaboration endpoints.

In rfb/CSecurityTLS.cxx and rfb/CSecurityTLS.java in TigerVNC before 1.11.0, viewers mishandle TLS certificate exceptions. They store the certificates as authorities, meaning that the owner of a certificate could impersonate any server after a client had added an exception.

Jenkins Mailer Plugin 1.32 and earlier does not perform hostname validation when connecting to the configured SMTP server.
