Original advisory details:
Scott Cantor discovered that libcurl incorrectly verified CN and SAN name
fields when digital signature verification was disabled. When libcurl is
being used in this uncommon way by specific applications, an attacker could
exploit this to perform a machine-in-the-middle attack to view sensitive
information or alter encrypted communications.");
