IE Flaw Leaves Users Open to Data Theft | |
|
||

There is a severe flaw in Microsoft Corp.'s ubiquitous Internet Explorer browser that could enable a malicious Web site operator to hijack user sessions and steal their credit card numbers and other sensitive data. The flaw lies in the way that IE verifies the validity of digital certificates issued to Web sites that offer SSL (Secure Socket Layer)-enabled connections. Such certificates are typically issued and signed by CAs (certificate authorities) such as VeriSign Inc. and list the URL of the Web site to which they are issued. When a user connects via the SSL protocol to a Web site, the user's browser will check the certificate to ensure that the domain listed on it matches the ones to which the browser is connected. | ||
