Description

This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.


1) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2014-3566)

CWE-ID: CWE-327 - Use of a Broken or Risky Cryptographic Algorithm

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


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform MitM attack.

The vulnerability exists due to usage of insecure SSLv3 protocol in OpenSSL. A remote attacker can force the current connection between user and server to be downgraded to SSLv3 protocol and then use padding-oracle attack on Cypher-block chaining (CBC) mode to decrypt encrypted communication.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to read encrypted communications in clear text.

Note: The vulnerability is known as POODLE.

2) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2014-5139)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

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


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

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and client application crash) via a ServerHello message that includes an SRP ciphersuite without the required negotiation of that ciphersuite with the client.
