Post subject: Bug#510348: does not appear to do any certificate validation
Archived from groups: linux>debian>bugs>rc (more info?)

The bug appears worse than that. I also get no errors when accessing
a site with a self-signed certificate; or with the wrong hostname in
the certificate. This is, I think, a pretty serious flaw as it makes
impersonation or an active man-in-the-middle attack very easy. On the
other hand, dillo does not display a padlock icon, so it could be
argued that users have no expectation of security from dillo.
