"Questions raised about the security of EV-SSL

Sintonen demonstrated how the use of cross-site scripting could be used to prompt users for their login credentials and then send the credentials to an unauthorised server. Sintonen also injected code that caused a pop-up window to appear on the page and said the flaw could be used to steal user cookies."
