Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'ca-certificates'
package(s) announced via the referenced advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
This package contains the set of CA certificates chosen by the Mozilla
Foundation for use with the Internet Public Key Infrastructure (PKI).

It was found that a subordinate Certificate Authority (CA) mis-issued an
intermediate certificate, which could be used to conduct man-in-the-middle
attacks. This update renders that particular intermediate certificate as
untrusted. (BZ#1038894)

All users should upgrade to this updated package. After installing the
update, all applications using the ca-certificates package must be
restarted for the changes to take effect.

Affected Software/OS:
ca-certificates on CentOS 6

Solution:
Please install the updated packages.
