Netty is a network application framework for development of protocol servers and clients. In versions 4.2.0.Final through 4.2.15.Final and prior to 4.1.135.Final, OcspClient does not validate that the CertificateID in an OCSP response matches the requested CertificateID, which can lead to replay attack. OcspClient.validateResponse accepts a legitimately signed GOOD status response for an unrelated certificate issued by the same CA, allowing bypass of revocation checks for another certificate. This issue is fixed in versions 4.1.136.Final and 4.2.16.Final.
Weakness
The product does not validate, or incorrectly validates, a certificate.
