Description Tim Brown 2009-08-23 11:58:01 UTC

Version:           4.3.0 (using KDE 4.3.0)
Compiler:          n/a n/a
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages

Konqueror only validates certs by MD5 sum.  It is also not possible to see the SHA1 sum for the cert in the KDE SSL Information window.  MD5 is broken and subject to chosen prefix attacks.
