AXSA:2014-536:01 advisory.

    Description :
    Apache AXIS is an implementation of the SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol)
    submission to W3C.
    From the draft W3C specification:
    SOAP is a lightweight protocol for exchange of information in a decentralized,
    distributed environment. It is an XML based protocol that consists of three
    parts: an envelope that defines a framework for describing what is in a message
    and how to process it, a set of encoding rules for expressing instances of
    application-defined datatypes, and a convention for representing remote
    procedure calls and responses.
    This project is a follow-on to the Apache SOAP project.
    Security issues fixed with this release:
    CVE-2014-3596
    The getCN function in Apache Axis 1.4 and earlier does not properly verify that the server hostname
    matches a domain name in the subject's Common Name (CN) or subjectAltName field of the X.509 certificate,
    which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof SSL servers via a certificate with a subject that
    specifies a common name in a field that is not the CN field. NOTE: this issue exists because of an
    incomplete fix for CVE-2012-5784.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the MiracleLinux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
