View Full Version : Odd Certificates Warning - Security Alerts
Trying this again, hope I got it right this time...
Running Windows 98SE and IE 6.
Logging into certain sites IE is giving me a security warning about a certificate who's name doesn't match the site. The issuer is Thawte.com who appear to be a legitimate certificate site but the issued to site varies from lb1.sj1 to lb3.sj1. I've searched these forums and only found a reference in someone else's logs to thawte. Searching the net for lb1.sj1 and lb3.sj1 I only found one reference over at the eBay forums.

---------------------------------------
BTW, I found the following email from Thawte posted to another forum, which might explain the problem which is still occurring. Different site listed below, same certificate warning:
Thank you for the information and the screenshots. Unfortunately that
certificate does belong to one of our customers and we may not give out
our customers details to the public.
However from the information you have provided I have the explanation as
to why you are receiving this error.
The issue is that on the www.paypal.com website, there are javascripts
that records the number of people hitting the site. In that javascript
is a secure link that uses a “wildcard” certificate. A wildcard
certificate is a certificate that has a FQDN of something such as
*.domain.com.
This is the first half of the issue of why you are getting the warning
message.
The second half of the reason is that you are using windows 98. Windows
98 does not accept the “*” character in the certificates. Thus when the
browser on the windows 98 OS encountered the secure link with the
wildcard certificate, it could not recognize the common name in the
certificate, removed that part of the url, and resulted this error. This
is why you could only see that the certificate was issued to “lb3.sj1”
Unfortunately unless you use a different operating system such as
windows 2000 (with the latest service packs, as even some windows 2000
can’t recognize the “*” character) you will continue to have this error.
I can confirm that there is no fraudulent activity with the Paypal site
or with our customer.
Thanks again for all the help!
Hi
Yes, that email makes sense :)
Please do an online scan with Kaspersky Online Scanner (http://www.kaspersky.com/downloads/kws/kavwebscan.html). You will be prompted to install an ActiveX component from Kaspersky, Click Yes.
The program will launch and then start to download the latest definition files.
Once the scanner is installed and the definitions downloaded, click Next.
Now click on Scan Settings
In the scan settings make sure that the following are selected:
o Scan using the following Anti-Virus database:
+ Extended (If available otherwise Standard)
o Scan Options:
+ Scan Archives
+ Scan Mail Bases
Click OK
Now under select a target to scan select My Computer
The scan will take a while so be patient and let it run. Once the scan is complete it will display if your system has been infected.
Now click on the Save as Text button
Save the file to your desktop.
Copy and paste that information in your next post.
Send:
- a fresh HijackThis log
- kaspersky report
Hi,
The Kaspersky scan just sits there and hangs. Have a broadband connection and gave it close to 10 minutes. No traffic across the modem. I do have eTrust antivirus installed, it's up to date and reports the system as being clean.
Gave it another half hour and still nothing. Dunno what's up with the site.
Hi
No worries, we'll try then offline scanner:
Please print these instructions out, or write them down, as you can't read them during the fix.
Please download MWav (http://www.spywareinfo.dk/download/mwav.exe):
Unzip it to its predetermined directory (C:\Kaspersky)
Locate kavupd.exe in the new folder and double-click to Update.
If your firewall gives any messages about this program accessing to internet, allow it.
If it says the signatures are more than 30 days old, keep trying, until you get the actual definition updates.
When you see Updates Downloaded Successfully, hit Enter to continue.
Restart onto Safe Mode (http://www.pchell.com/support/safemode.shtml) and locate the Kaspersky folder.
Locate mwavscan.com and double-click on it to launch the MWAV Scanner.Now lets do the settings:
Leave the Default Settings checked.
Add a check to Drives
This will light up All Drives
Add a check to Scan all Files
Click Scan Clean to begin.
This scan might take around 3+ hours to finish when set to scan everything.
Please be sure it has finished before proceeding.
Once the Scan has finished, all entries identified as Infected, will be displayed in the lower panel.
Highlight everything that is inside the lower panel and hit Ctrl+C at the same time to copy.
Open an empty notepad file and paste the results (Ctrl+V) to it. Save the notepad to your desktop, name it as you want (e.g; MWav Results).Reboot into normal Windows and post the results here along with a fresh HijackThis log.
