>From CVE-2007-6591:
"KDE Konqueror 3.5.5 and 3.95.00, when a user accepts an SSL server certificate
on the basis of the CN domain name in the DN field, regards the certificate as
also accepted for all domain names in subjectAltName:dNSName fields, even though
these fields cannot be examined in the product, which makes it easier for remote
attackers to trick a user into accepting an invalid certificate for a spoofed
web site."
