*** This bug is a security vulnerability ***

Public security bug reported:

http://blog.startcom.org/?p=145

Comodo, or one of its resellers, has been observed selling certificates
without serious domain control checks or other verification.  There
should be some consideration for removing the impacted CA certificate
from ca-certificates and other related packages in the near future,
considering the possibility of other fake certificates.

I wish the site above had more details, but obviously a 'how to get your
own cert like this' is just asking for trouble.

** Affects: ca-certificates (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New

** Visibility changed to: Public
