The verify_hostname_of_cert function in the certificate checking feature in
IO-Socket-SSL (IO::Socket::SSL) 1.14 through 1.25 only matches the prefix
of a hostname when no wildcard is used, which allows remote attackers to
bypass the hostname check for a certificate.

Notes

Author Note
mdeslaur versions < 1.14 don’t check ssl certs at all
