Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.
EUVDB-ID: #VU249
Risk: Medium
CVSSv4.0: 2 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Green]
CVE-ID: CVE-2003-0543
CWE-ID:
CWE-190 - Integer overflow
Exploit availability: Yes
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.
The vulnerability exists due to an integer overflow in OpenSSL 0.9.6 and 0.9.7. A remote unauthenticated attacker can cause a denial of service via an SSL client certificate with certain ASN.1 tag values.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in cause a denial of service.

Q & A
Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?
Yes. This vulnerability can be exploited by a remote non-authenticated attacker via the Internet.
Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?
No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability. However, proof of concept for this vulnerability is available.
EUVDB-ID: #VU248
Risk: Medium
CVSSv4.0: 1.2 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]
CVE-ID: CVE-2003-0544
CWE-ID:
CWE-20 - Improper input validation
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.
The vulnerability exists due to incorrect tracking of the number of characters in certain ASN.1 inputs. A remote unauthenticated attacker can cause a denial of service by sending an SSL client certificate that causes OpenSSL to read past the end of a buffer when the long form is used.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in a denial of service.
