Issue

The Qkr! with MasterPass iOS application (version 5.0.6 and below),
does not validate the SSL certificate it receives when connecting to
the application login server.

Impact

bogus SSL certificate which the application will accept silently.
Sensitive information could be captured by an attacker without the
user's knowledge.
