The vulnerability is in the insecure SSL implementation of the affected operating system due to improper handling of SSL and Transport Layer Security (TLS) security certificates.  The affected implementation could insecurely validate the certificate authority (CA) hierarchy and could trust illegitimate certificates. An unauthenticated, remote attacker could exploit the vulnerability by using a legitimate certificate to generate a security certificate for a third-party domain.  The attacker would then attempt to convince an affected user to visit the domain and establish an SSL connection with the domain by using the certificate provided. A successful attack could allow the attacker to conduct a man-in-the-middle attack against the affected user. Cisco IronPort has confirmed the vulnerability; however, updates are not yet available. A workaround exists to mitigate the impact of this vulnerability. A successful attack would require the attacker to have access to a network that is adjacent to the targeted user's system.  This requirement would limit the likelihood of an attack. A workaround exists that mitigates this vulnerability. The WSA can be configured to drop invalid certificates via the administrative GUI under Security Services -> HTTPS Proxy. The section \"Invalid Certificate Handling\" may be used to configure the handling of invalid certificates, enabling the administrator to configure the WSA to drop invalid certificates.","severity":"Medium","published_at":"2012-04-12T16:01:37Z","updated_at":"2012-04-12T16:01:37Z","source_url":"https://sec.cloudapps.cisco.com/security/center/content/CiscoSecurityAdvisory/Cisco-SA-20120412-CVE-2012-1326","csaf_url":"https://sec.cloudapps.cisco.com/security/center/contentjson/CiscoSecurityAdvisory/Cisco-SA-20120412-CVE-2012-1326/csaf/Cisco-SA-20120412-CVE-2012-1326.json","exposure_verdict":"not_assessed","verdict_reason":"Public evidence does not evaluate exact release, platform, enabled features, configuration, compensating controls, or live exposure."},"freshness":{"last_source_refreshed_at":"2026-07-21T05:16:34Z","latest_source_refresh_at":"2026-07-21T05:16:34Z","oldest_source_refresh_at":"2026-07-21T03:00:03Z","all_sources_fresh":true,"sources":[{"source":"cisco_advisories","label":"Cisco advisories","last_success_at":"2026-07-21T03:00:03Z","stale":false},{"source":"cisco_csaf","label":"Cisco CSAF","last_success_at":"2026-07-21T05:14:24Z","stale":false},{"source":"nvd_cves","label":"NVD CVEs","last_success_at":"2026-07-21T05:16:30Z","stale":false},{"source":"cisa_kev","label":"CISA KEV","last_success_at":"2026-07-21T05:16:31Z","stale":false},{"source":"first_epss","label":"EPSS","last_success_at":"2026-07-21T05:16:34Z","stale":false}]},"summary":{"cve_count":1,"visible_product_count":1,"public_evidence_count":1,"kev_count":0,"highest_epss":0.00657},"cves":[{"id":"CVE-2012-1326","kev":false,"epss":{"score":0.00657,"percentile":0.47353,"score_date":"2026-07-19","updated_at":"2026-07-20T05:46:47Z"}}],"public_evidence":[{"product":{"name":"Cisco IronPort Web Security Appliance","slug":"cisco-ironport-web-security-appliance","vendor":"Cisco"},"cve":{"id":"CVE-2012-1326"},"evidence_type":"structured_affected","evidence_label":{"scope":"CSAF product evidence","label":"product_status known affected"},"evidence_source":"Cisco CSAF","source":"Cisco CSAF","source_document_fetched_at":"2026-07-20T04:07:53Z","csaf_status":"known_affected","csaf_product_status":"known_affected","csaf_product_status_path":"vulnerabilities[].product_status.known_affected","raw_product_name":"Cisco IronPort Web Security Appliance","exposure_verdict":"not_assessed","verdict_reason":"Public evidence does not evaluate exact release, platform, enabled features, configuration, compensating controls, or live exposure.","exposure_verdict_reason":"Public evidence does not evaluate exact release, platform, enabled features, configuration, compensating controls, or live exposure.","kev":false,"epss":{"score":0.00657,"score_date":"2026-07-19","updated_at":"2026-07-20T05:46:47Z"},"published_at":"2012-04-12T16:01:37Z","updated_at":"2012-04-12T16:01:37Z","advisory_updated_at":"2012-04-12T16:01:37Z","source_url":"https://sec.cloudapps.cisco.com/security/center/content/CiscoSecurityAdvisory/Cisco-SA-20120412-CVE-2012-1326","row_display_order":1}]}
