| MD5 Considered Harmful Today - Creating A Rogue CA Certificate. The authors of this paper have identified a vulnerability in the Internet Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) used to issue digital certificates for secure websites. As a proof of concept they executed a practical attack scenario and successfully created a rogue Certification Authority (CA) certificate trusted by all common web browsers. This certificate allows them to impersonate any website on the Internet, including banking and e-commerce sites secured using the HTTPS protocol. | | Author: | Arjen Lenstra, Benne de Weger, Dag Arne Osvik, David Molnar, Jacob Appelbaum, Marc Stevens,Alexander Sotirov | | Homepage: | http://www.win.tue.nl/hashclash/rogue-ca/ | | File Size: | 1800222 | | Last Modified: | Dec 31 10:24:58 2008 | | MD5 Checksum: | 51b2bd6ef0ba7a507fadfac5fb1be20f |
