david <db.pub.m...@gmail.com> added the comment: So I know the current patch doesn't support IP addresses but I thought I would link to what mozilla considered a security problem(just for future reference):
CVE-2010-3170: http://www.mozilla.org/security/announce/2010/mfsa2010-70.html "Security researcher Richard Moore reported that when an SSL certificate was created with a common name containing a wildcard followed by a partial IP address a valid SSL connection could be established with a server whose IP address matched the wildcard range by browsing directly to the IP address. It is extremely unlikely that such a certificate would be issued by a Certificate Authority." ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1589> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
