Ubuntu priority

Medium

Why this priority?

Irssi before 0.8.15, when SSL is used, does not verify that the server hostname matches a domain name in the subject’s Common Name (CN) field or a Subject Alternative Name field of the X.509 certificate, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof IRC servers via an arbitrary certificate.

No maintained releases are affected by this CVE.
