    Package : pyopenssl
    Vulnerability : hostname check bypassing
    Problem type : remote
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE ID : CVE-2013-4314
    Debian Bug : 722055

    It was discovered that PyOpenSSL, a Python wrapper around the OpenSSL
    library, does not properly handle certificates with NULL characters in
    the Subject Alternative Name field.

    A remote attacker in the position to obtain a certificate for 'www.foo.org\0.example.com' from a CA that a SSL client trusts, could
    use this to spoof 'www.foo.org' and conduct man-in-the-middle attacks
    between the PyOpenSSL-using client and the SSL server.

    For the oldstable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in version 0.10-1+squeeze1.

    For the stable distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in
    version 0.13-2+deb7u1.

    For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
    version 0.13-2.1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your pyopenssl packages.
