Package: mutt Version: 1.5.20-9+squeeze1 Severity: grave Tags: security Justification: user security hole
The gnutls implementation of ssl found in mutt, in mutt_ssl_gnutls.c, appears to not validate the common name of a remote server correctly. The openssl implementation found in mutt_ssl.c does perform this check correctly. Can the mutt package be re-build against openssl and not gnutls.
