CFNetwork
CVE-ID: CVE-2008-1580
Available for: Mac OS X v10.4.11, Mac OS X Server v10.4.11,
Mac OS X v10.5 through v10.5.2, Mac OS X Server v10.5 through v10.5.2
Impact: Visiting a maliciously crafted website may lead to the
disclosure of sensitive information
Description: An information disclosure issue exists in Safari's SSL
client certificate handling. When a web server issues a client
certificate request, the first client certificate found in the
keychain is automatically sent, which may lead to the disclosure of
the information contained in the certificate. This update addresses
the issue by prompting the user before sending the certificate.
