EMC RSA BSAFE Micro Edition Suite (MES) 3.2.x before 3.2.6 and 4.0.x before 4.0.5 does not properly validate X.509 certificate chains, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof SSL servers via a crafted certificate chain.

Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)

Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • Signature Spoofing by Key Recreation
    An attacker obtains an authoritative or reputable signer's private signature key by exploiting a cryptographic weakness in the signature algorithm or pseudorandom number generation and then uses this key to forge signatures from the original signer to mislead a victim into performing actions that benefit the attacker.
