CVE-2014-3504 Information

Description

The (1) serf_ssl_cert_issuer (2) serf_ssl_cert_subject and (3) serf_ssl_cert_certificate functions in Serf 0.2.0 through 1.3.x before 1.3.7 does not properly handle a NUL byte in a domain name in the subject’s Common Name (CN) field of an X.509 certificate which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof arbitrary SSL servers via a crafted certificate issued by a legitimate Certification Authority.
