Microsoft has released a security advisory concerning a fraudulent digital certificate for all Google domains apparently created by the Turkish government. The certificate, which was created by a subsidiary Certificate Authority issued to the transportation directorate of the city government of Ankara, could have been used to intercept SSL traffic as part of a "man in the middle" attack to spoof Google's encryption certificate and decrypt secure Web sessions to Google Plus and GMail.
