DESCRIPTION:
Mohamed Ramadan has discovered a security issue in Facebook Camera
for iOS, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct
spoofing attacks.
The security issue is caused due to the application not properly
verifying the server SSL certificate. This can be exploited to e.g.
spoof the server via a MitM (Man-in-the-Middle) attack and e.g.
disclose potentially sensitive information.
The security issue is confirmed in versions prior to 1.1.2.
SOLUTION:
Update to version 1.1.2.
