3) Resource management error

EUVDB-ID: #VU1974

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 6.5 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2016-2179

CWE-ID: CWE-399 - Resource Management Errors

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to improper management of internal resources in the Datagram TLS (DTLS) implementation. A remote attacker can initiate and maintain multiple crafted DTLS sessions simultaneously and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.

4) Input validation error

EUVDB-ID: #VU1975

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 6.5 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2016-2181

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input within the Anti-Replay feature in the DTLS implementation when using a new epoch number in conjunction with a large sequence number. A remote attacker can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack (false-positive packet drops) via spoofed DTLS records.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.

EUVDB-ID: #VU814

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 6.5 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2016-6302

CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition when handling SHA512 TLS session tickets. A remote attacker can send specially crafted packets to the system, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.

6) Denial of service

EUVDB-ID: #VU816

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 6.5 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2016-6306

CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote unauthenticated user to cause DoS conditions on the target system.
The weakess exists due insufficient length validation of certain TLS/SSL protocol handshake messages. By causing out-of-bounds read error attackers can trigger the affected service deny.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability will result in denial of service on the vulnerable system.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.
