Detail

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

- Ubuntu 11.10 - Ubuntu 11.04 - Ubuntu 10.10 - Ubuntu 10.04 LTS

Summary:

A certificate authority mis-issued fraudulent certificates.

Software Description: - ca-certificates-java: Common CA certificates (JKS keystore)

Details:

USN-1197-5 addressed an issue in ca-certificates pertaining to the Dutch Certificate Authority DigiNotar mis-issuing fraudulent certificates. This update provides the corresponding update for ca-certificates-java.

Original advisory details:

It was discovered that Dutch Certificate Authority DigiNotar had
mis-issued multiple fraudulent certificates. These certificates could allow
an attacker to perform a "man in the middle" (MITM) attack which would make
the user believe their connection is secure, but is actually being
monitored.

Update instructions:

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions:

Ubuntu 11.10:
ca-certificates-java 20110912ubuntu3.1

Ubuntu 11.04:
ca-certificates-java 20100412ubuntu0.11.04.1

Ubuntu 10.10:
ca-certificates-java 20100412ubuntu0.10.10.1

Ubuntu 10.04 LTS:
ca-certificates-java 20100406ubuntu1.1

After a standard system update you need to restart any application using ca-certificates-java to make all the necessary changes.
