CNet reports on SSL Vulnerability, Again.
CNet is reporting that Google making SSL changes based on an SSL vulnerability that would allow a hacker to easily intercept someone's communications with supposedly secure Web sites over an unsecured Wi-Fi network. This vulnerability has been bouncing around for a little over a year. The SSL vulnerability potentially impacts Google services like GMail that support using SSL technology. The vulnerability has been around for a while; having been presented last year at DefCon 2007. See this message by Mike Perry to the BugTraq list for more details.
