[QUOTE="cruelsister, post: 564943, member: 7463"] I really had no intention of becoming an apologist for Comodo, but just for those that may not be conversant with the above- 1). Privdog indeed had an error in coding, and as the total worldwide base was about 50,000 total this was not found right away. coding errors leading to potential exploits are nothing new though, and certainly not specific to Comodo; Oracle with Java, Adobe with Flash, and MS with Windows are also prone to this stuff and their user base is a bit more than 50K. 2). SSL certificates- these are actually privately discounted in the Industry. The issuance of domain-validated certificates is commonplace and a grave mistake. Personally I would only trust those certs by DigiCert or Entrust, but even here a local bypass can occur with a side-channel attack, an example of which was presented this August at BlackHat 16. 3). Valkyrie does indeed suck. 4). Comodo forums are worse. 5). The auto-sandbox is indeed superb and is unique for the home market which was the point of the video in the OP. [/QUOTE]
