Detailed vulnerability description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass integrity validation.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in CMS AuthEnvelopedData processing when decrypting crafted AuthEnvelopedData containers. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted CMS message to bypass integrity validation.

In some cases, if the application exposes decryption success or failure, the issue can be used as an oracle to obtain key-equivalent functionality for the content-encryption key.
