Hash: SHA256

> I reported a vulnerability in the Smack XMPP library where the security of
> the TLS connection is not always enforced. By stripping the "starttls"
> feature from the server response with a man-in-the-middle tool, an attacker
> can force the client to authenticate in clear text even if the
> "SecurityMode.required" TLS setting has been set. This is a race condition
> issue so the attack will work after a few tries.
