  A flaw was discovered in the way GnuTLS handles NULL characters in certain

  carefully-crafted certificate signed by a Certificate Authority trusted by
  an application using GnuTLS, the attacker could use the certificate during
  a man-in-the-middle attack and potentially confuse the application into
  accepting it by mistake. (CVE-2009-2730)
