Description

Improper Certificate Validation in Apache Netbeans

This allows an attacker to intercept downloads of autoupdates and modify the download, potentially injecting malicious code. "Apache NetBeans" versions up to and including 11.2 are affected by this vulnerability. NetBeans releases before the Apache transition started may also be affected.
