httpcomponents-client (4.3.3-1ubuntu0.1) trusty-security; urgency=medium

  * SECURITY UPDATE: It was found that the fix for CVE-2012-5783
    and CVE-2012-6153 was incomplete. The code added to check that
    the server hostname matches the domain name in the subject's CN
    field was flawed. This can be exploited by a Man-in-the-middle
    (MITM) attack where the attacker can spoof a valid certificate
    using a specially crafted subject.

    - CVE-2014-3577
