Description

Heise Security has reported a security issue in SteadyBackup Online Backup Manager, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct spoofing attacks.

The problem is that the certificate presented by a server at the beginning of an SSL session is not verified. This can be exploited to spoof valid servers via a man-in-the-middle attack.


Solution
Update to version 5.2.6.2.
