CWE-599: Missing Validation of OpenSSL Certificate

ID CWE-599

Abstraction Variant

Structure Simple

Status Incomplete

Number of CVEs 8

The product uses OpenSSL and trusts or uses a certificate without using the SSL_get_verify_result() function to ensure that the certificate satisfies all necessary security requirements.

This could allow an attacker to use an invalid certificate to claim to be a trusted host, use expired certificates, or conduct other attacks that could be detected if the certificate is properly validated.
