CVE-2009-3639
Last modified
CVE-2009-3639 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The mod_tls module in ProFTPD before 1.3.2b, and 1.3.3 before 1.3.3rc2, when the dNSNameRequired TLS option is enabled, does not properly handle a '\0' character in a domain name in the Subject Alternative Name field of an X.509 client certificate, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended client-hostname restrictions via a crafted certificate issued by a legitimate Certification Authority, a related issue to CVE-2009-2408.. EPSS estimates a 5.70% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
