It was discovered that PyOpenSSL, a Python wrapper around the OpenSSL
library, does not properly handle certificates with NULL characters in
the Subject Alternative Name field.

A remote attacker in the position to obtain a certificate for
www.foo.org\0.example.com’ from a CA that a SSL client trusts, could
use this to spoof www.foo.org
and conduct man-in-the-middle attacks
between the PyOpenSSL-using client and the SSL server.
