TITLE:
BlackBerry Devices Insufficient Certificate Warning Security Issue

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA36875

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/36875/

DESCRIPTION:
A security issue has been reported in BlackBerry Device Software,
which can be exploited by malicious people to potentially conduct
spoofing attacks.

The security issue is caused due to the dialog box displayed by the
browser when a mismatched certificate is detected not showing e.g.
NULL ('\0') characters. This can be exploited to potentially trick a
user into ignoring the warning dialog box and accept a spoofed
certificate containing special characters in the Common Name field.
