Publication date 22 July 2014

Ubuntu priority

Low

Why this priority?

Mozilla Firefox before 31.0 and Thunderbird before 31.0 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (X.509 certificate parsing outage) via a crafted certificate that does not use UTF-8 character encoding in a required context, a different vulnerability than CVE-2014-1558.
