NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kdelibs-apidocs package and not the kdelibs-apidocs package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:6 relevant fixed versions and status.

kio/kio/tcpslavebase.cpp in KDE KSSL in kdelibs before 4.6.1 does not properly verify that the server hostname matches the domain name of the subject of an X.509 certificate, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof arbitrary SSL servers via a certificate issued by a legitimate Certification Authority for an IP address, a different vulnerability than CVE-2009-2702.
