Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Cryptographic issues (CVE-ID: CVE-2013-7295)

CWE-ID: CWE-310 - Cryptographic Issues

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:A/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to read and manipulate data.

Tor before 0.2.4.20, when OpenSSL 1.x is used in conjunction with a certain HardwareAccel setting on Intel Sandy Bridge and Ivy Bridge platforms, does not properly generate random numbers for (1) relay identity keys and (2) hidden-service identity keys, which might make it easier for remote attackers to bypass cryptographic protection mechanisms via unspecified vectors.


Remediation

Install update from vendor's website.
