Description
A vulnerability has been identified in Bitdefender Total Security HTTPS scanning functionality where the software fails to properly validate website certificates. Specifically if a site certificate lacks the \Server Authentication\ specification in the Extended Key Usage extension the product does not verify the certificate’s compliance with the site deeming such certificates as valid. This flaw could allow an attacker to perform a Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) attack intercepting and potentially altering communications between the user and the website.
