CVE-2009-3024 (2009-08-31)

The verify_hostname_of_cert function in the certificate checking feature in IO-Socket-SSL (IO::Socket::SSL) 1.14 through 1.25 only matches the prefix of a hostname when no wildcard is used, which allows remote attackers to bypass the hostname check for a certificate.

Changes for version 1.998 - 2014-09-07

  • make client authentication work at the server side when SNI is in by use having CA path and other settings in all SSL contexts instead of only the main one. Based on code from lundstrom[DOT]jerry[AT]gmail[DOT]com, https://github.com/noxxi/p5-io-socket-ssl/pull/15
