SSL: Apple Products SSL Security Feature Bypass Via Proxy
There signature detects attempts to exploit a known issue against Apple Products in the way it handles SSL/TLS session version negotiation. By injecting malformed traffic into an SSL or TLS session, a man-in-the-middle attacker can exploit this vulnerability.
Extended Description
The SSLVerifySignedServerKeyExchange function in libsecurity_ssl/lib/sslKeyExchange.c in the Secure Transport feature in the Data Security component in Apple iOS 6.x before 6.1.6 and 7.x before 7.0.6, Apple TV 6.x before 6.0.2, and Apple OS X 10.9.x before 10.9.2 does not check the signature in a TLS Server Key Exchange message, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof SSL servers by (1) using an arbitrary private key for the signing step or (2) omitting the signing step.
