tag_summary = "The IO::Socket::SSL module for Perl is prone to a security-
bypass vulnerability because the application fails to properly
validate certificate hostnames.

Successfully exploiting this issue allows attackers to bypass certain
security restrictions, which may aid in further attacks.

Versions prior to IO::Socket::SSL 1.26 are vulnerable.";

tag_solution = "Updates are available. Please see the references for more information.";
