Microsoft Releases Security Advisory 2524375

Wednesday, March 23, 2011

Hello - Today we’re releasing Security Advisory 2524375, to address nine fraudulent digital certificates issued by Comodo Group Inc, a root certificate authority. Comodo has since revoked the digital certificates. This is not a Microsoft security vulnerability; however, one of the certificates potentially affects Windows Live ID users via login.live.com. These certificates may be used to spoof content, perform phishing attacks, or perform man-in-the-middle attacks against end users.
