DESCRIPTION:
Heise Security has reported a security issue in Online Backup 24
Client, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct
spoofing attacks.

The problem is that the certificate presented by a server at the
beginning of an SSL session is not verified. This can be exploited to
spoof valid servers via a man-in-the-middle attack.

SOLUTION:
Do not backup sensitive data, do not rely on the certificate
verification.
