Apache Axis 1.4 and earlier, as used in PayPal Payments Pro, PayPal Mass
Pay, PayPal Transactional Information SOAP, the Java Message Service
implementation in Apache ActiveMQ, and other products, does not verify that
the server hostname matches a domain name in the subject’s Common Name (CN)
or subjectAltName field of the X.509 certificate, which allows
man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof SSL servers via an arbitrary valid
certificate.

Notes

Author Note
mdeslaur debian 1.4-16.1 has a possible regression. Nothing in the main archive seems to be directly affected by this, and changing it now may introduce failures in certain environments where the CN doesn’t match the hostname. Downgrading priority to β€œlow”
jdstrand if fixing this, also fix CVE-2014-3596
