  - CVE-2012-5785: a security bypass vulnerability because the application fails to properly
  validate SSL certificates from the server

  - CVE-2012-5785: perform man-in-the-middle attacks or impersonate trusted servers, which will aid
  in further attacks

  - CVE-2012-4418: may allow unauthenticated attackers to construct specially crafted messages that
  can be successfully verified and contain arbitrary content. This may aid in further attacks
