Since ASN1_TYPE_cmp is used to check + certificate signature algorithm consistency this can be used to crash any + certificate verification operation and exploited in a DoS attack. Any + application which performs certificate verification is vulnerable including + OpenSSL clients and servers which enable client authentication. + (CVE-2015-0286) + [Stephen Henson] + + *) ASN.1 structure reuse memory corruption fix + + Reusing a structure in ASN.1 parsing may allow an attacker to cause + memory corruption via an invalid write. Such reuse is and has been + strongly discouraged and is believed to be rare. + + Applications that parse structures containing CHOICE or ANY DEFINED BY + components may be affected. Certificate parsing (d2i_X509 and related + functions) are however not affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are + not affected. + (CVE-2015-0287) + [Stephen Henson] + + *) PKCS7 NULL pointer dereferences fix + + The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing outer ContentInfo + correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs with + missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing. + + Applications that verify PKCS#7 signatures, decrypt PKCS#7 data or + otherwise parse PKCS#7 structures from untrusted sources are + affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are not affected. + + This issue was reported to OpenSSL by Michal Zalewski (Google). + (CVE-2015-0289) + [Emilia Käsper] + + *) DoS via reachable assert in SSLv2 servers fix + + A malicious client can trigger an OPENSSL_assert (i.e., an abort) in + servers that both support SSLv2 and enable export cipher suites by sending + a specially crafted SSLv2 CLIENT-MASTER-KEY message. + + This issue was discovered by Sean Burford (Google) and Emilia Käsper + (OpenSSL development team). + (CVE-2015-0293) + [Emilia Käsper] + + *) Use After Free following d2i_ECPrivatekey error fix + + A malformed EC private key file consumed via the d2i_ECPrivateKey function + could cause a use after free condition. This, in turn, could cause a double + free in several private key parsing functions (such as d2i_PrivateKey + or EVP_PKCS82PKEY) and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption + for applications that receive EC private keys from untrusted + sources. This scenario is considered rare. + + This issue was discovered by the BoringSSL project and fixed in their + commit 517073cd4b. + (CVE-2015-0209) + [Matt Caswell] + + *) X509_to_X509_REQ NULL pointer deref fix + + The function X509_to_X509_REQ will crash with a NULL pointer dereference if + the certificate key is invalid. This function is rarely used in practice. + + This issue was discovered by Brian Carpenter. + (CVE-2015-0288) + [Stephen Henson] + *) Removed the export ciphers from the DEFAULT ciphers [Kurt Roeckx] |
