An issue was discovered in openfortivpn 1.11.0 when used with OpenSSL 1.0.2 or later. tunnel.c mishandles certificate validation because an X509_check_host negative error code is interpreted as a successful return value.
Weakness
The product does not validate, or incorrectly validates, a certificate.
