Thus the contents of some of these vector + registers is corrupted when returning to the caller. The vulnerable code is + used only on newer PowerPC processors supporting the PowerISA 2.07 + instructions. + + The consequences of this kind of internal application state corruption can + be various - from no consequences, if the calling application does not + depend on the contents of non-volatile XMM registers at all, to the worst + consequences, where the attacker could get complete control of the + application process. However unless the compiler uses the vector registers + for storing pointers, the most likely consequence, if any, would be an + incorrect result of some application dependent calculations or a crash + leading to a denial of service. + + ([CVE-2023-6129]) + + *Rohan McLure* + * Fix excessive time spent in DH check / generation with large Q parameter value. @@ -19756,6 +19776,7 @@ ndif <!-- Links --> +[CVE-2023-6129]: https://www.openssl.org/news/vulnerabilities.html#CVE-2023-6129 [CVE-2023-5678]: https://www.openssl.org/news/vulnerabilities.html#CVE-2023-5678 [CVE-2023-5363]: https://www.openssl.org/news/vulnerabilities.html#CVE-2023-5363 [CVE-2023-4807]: https://www.openssl.org/news/vulnerabilities.html#CVE-2023-4807 |
