Spoofable Common Name Of A Certificate

The kdelibs and kdelibs3 packages is vulnerable to spoofing of common name of a certificate. An input sanitization flaw was found in the KSSL (KDE SSL Wrapper) API. An attacker could supply a specially-crafted SSL certificate (for example, via a web page) to an application using KSSL, such as the Konqueror web browser, causing misleading information to be presented to the user, possibly tricking them into accepting the certificate as valid.
