Description

The functions to fetch e-mail via POP3 or IMAP as well as sending e-mail via SMTP use OpenSSL for static SSL or TLS based communication. As the <br /> SSL_get_verify_result() function is not used the certificated is trusted always and it can not be ensured that the certificate <br /> satisfies all necessary security requirements.<br /> <br /> This could allow an <br /> attacker to use an invalid certificate to claim to be a trusted host, <br /> use expired certificates, or conduct other attacks that could be <br /> detected if the certificate is properly validated.<br /> <br /> This issue affects OTRS: from 7.0.X before 7.0.47, from 8.0.X before 8.0.37; ((OTRS)) Community Edition: from 6.0.X through 6.0.34.<br /> <br />
