CVE-2019-14823 [HIGH] CVE-2019-14823 JSS: OCSP policy "Leaf and Chain" implicitly trusts the root certificate
CVE-2019-14823 JSS: OCSP policy "Leaf and Chain" implicitly trusts the root certificate
When configured with the leaf and chain OCSP policy, JSS assumes that the root is trusted, and there is no attempt to validate it.
This could allow a specially crafted certificate to be accepted by the application, and could be used, for example, in Man in the Middle attacks.
