Synopsis: Moderate: axis security update
Issue Date: 2013-03-25
CVE Numbers: CVE-2012-5784
--

Apache Axis 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-2012-5784)

Applications using Apache Axis must be restarted for this update to take
effect.
