Title: | Mandriva Update for libgdata MDVSA-2012:111 (libgdata) |
Summary: | The remote host is missing an update for the 'libgdata'; package(s) announced via the referenced advisory. |
Description: | Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'libgdata' package(s) announced via the referenced advisory. Vulnerability Insight: A vulnerability has been discovered and corrected in libgdata: It was found that previously libgdata, a GLib-based library for accessing online service APIs using the GData protocol, did not perform SSL certificates validation even for secured connections. An application, linked against the libgdata library and holding the trust about the other side of the connection being the valid owner of the certificate, could be tricked into accepting of a spoofed SSL certificate by mistake (MITM attack) (CVE-2012-1177). The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue. Affected Software/OS: libgdata on Mandriva Linux 2011.0 Solution: Please Install the Updated Packages. CVSS Score: 5.1 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:H/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P |
