Title:	CentOS Update for jakarta-commons-httpclient CESA-2013:0270 centos5
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'jakarta-commons-httpclient'; package(s) announced via the referenced advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'jakarta-commons-httpclient' package(s) announced via the referenced advisory. Vulnerability Insight: The Jakarta Commons HttpClient component can be used to build HTTP-aware client applications (such as web browsers and web service clients). The Jakarta Commons HttpClient component did not verify that the server hostname matched the domain name in the subject's Common Name (CN) or subjectAltName field in X.509 certificates. This could allow a man-in-the-middle attacker to spoof an SSL server if they had a certificate that was valid for any domain name. (CVE-2012-5783) All users of jakarta-commons-httpclient are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which correct this issue. Applications using the Jakarta Commons HttpClient component must be restarted for this update to take effect. Affected Software/OS: jakarta-commons-httpclient on CentOS 5 Solution: Please install the updated packages. CVSS Score: 5.8 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:N
