An OOB read flaw was found in the RFC 3161 Public Key Infrastructure Time-Stamp Protocol code of OpenSSL. An attacker could use this flaw to cause the openssl binary to crash when specially-crafted time-stamp file is parsed via the "openssl ts" command.

Upstream commit:

master: https://github.com/openssl/openssl/commit/0ed26acce328ec16a3aa635f1ca37365e8c7403a 1.0.1: https://github.com/openssl/openssl/commit/6adf409c7432b90c06d9890787fe56c48f2a16e7

The DTLS retransmission implementation in OpenSSL 1.0.0 before 1.0.0l and 1.0.1 before 1.0.1f does not properly maintain data structures for digest and encryption contexts, which might allow man-in-the-middle attackers to trigger the use of a different context and cause a denial of service (application crash) by interfering with packet delivery, related to ssl/d1both.c and ssl/t1enc.c.

A flaw was reported for OpenSSL 1.0.1e, that can cause application using OpenSSL to crash when using TLS version 1.2. Issue was reported via the following OpenSSL upstream ticket:

http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=3200&user=guest&pass=guest

and also as bug for Apache Traffic Server:

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-2355

Fix is now committed in upstream git:

http://git.openssl.org/gitweb/?p=openssl.git;a=commitdiff;h=ca98926

Related to the above ticket, upstream also added this fix to improve error checks in OpenSSL:

http://git.openssl.org/gitweb/?p=openssl.git;a=commitdiff;h=0294b2b

A flaw was found in the way the DES/3DES cipher was used as part of the TLS/SSL protocol. A man-in-the-middle attacker could use this flaw to recover some plaintext data by capturing large amounts of encrypted traffic between TLS/SSL server and client if the communication used a DES/3DES based ciphersuite.

Bodo Möller, Thai Duong and Krzysztof Kotowicz of Google discovered a flaw in the design of SSL version 3.0 that would allow an attacker to calculate the plaintext of secure connections, allowing, for example, secure HTTP cookies to be stolen.

If an X.509 certificate has a malformed IPAddressFamily extension, OpenSSL could do a one-byte buffer overread. The most likely result would be an erroneous display of the certificate in text format.

A memory leak flaw was found in the way OpenSSL handled TLS status request extension data during session renegotiation. A remote attacker could cause a TLS server using OpenSSL to consume an excessive amount of memory and, possibly, exit unexpectedly after exhausting all available memory, if it enabled OCSP stapling support.

It was discovered that the Datagram TLS (DTLS) implementation could fail to release memory in certain cases. A malicious DTLS client could cause a DTLS server using OpenSSL to consume an excessive amount of memory and, possibly, exit unexpectedly after exhausting all available memory.

An integer underflow flaw leading to a buffer over-read was found in the way OpenSSL parsed TLS session tickets. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash a TLS server using OpenSSL if it used SHA-512 as HMAC for session tickets.

A flaw was found in the Datagram TLS (DTLS) replay protection implementation in OpenSSL. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to make a DTLS server using OpenSSL to reject further packets sent from a DTLS client over an established DTLS connection.

It was discovered that OpenSSL did not always use constant time operations when computing Digital Signature Algorithm (DSA) signatures. A local attacker could possibly use this flaw to obtain a private DSA key belonging to another user or service running on the same system.

A common idiom in the codebase is:

if (p + len > limit) { return; / Too long / }

where p points to some malloc'd data of SIZE bytes and limit == p + SIZE. 'len' could be from some externally supplied data, e.g. TLS message. This idiom is vulnerable to integer overflow vulnerability.

An out of bounds write flaw was discovered in the OpenSSL BNbn2dec() function. An attacker able to make an application using OpenSSL to process a large BIGNUM could cause the application to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code.

As per Upstream advisory:

A double free bug was discovered when OpenSSL parses malformed DSA private keys and could lead to a DoS attack or memory corruption for applications that receive DSA private keys from untrusted sources. This scenario is considered rare.

This issue affects OpenSSL versions 1.0.2 and 1.0.1.

OpenSSL 1.0.2 users should upgrade to 1.0.2g OpenSSL 1.0.1 users should upgrade to 1.0.1s

This issue was reported to OpenSSL on 7th February 2016 by Adam Langley (Google/BoringSSL) using libFuzzer. The fix was developed by Dr Stephen Henson of OpenSSL.

The BNGF2mmodinv function in crypto/bn/bngf2m.c in OpenSSL before 0.9.8s, 1.0.0 before 1.0.0e, 1.0.1 before 1.0.1n, and 1.0.2 before 1.0.2b does not properly handle ECParameters structures in which the curve is over a malformed binary polynomial field, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a session that uses an Elliptic Curve algorithm, as demonstrated by an attack against a server that supports client authentication.

Race condition in the ssl3getnewsessionticket function in ssl/s3clnt.c in OpenSSL before 0.9.8zg, 1.0.0 before 1.0.0s, 1.0.1 before 1.0.1n, and 1.0.2 before 1.0.2b, when used for a multi-threaded client, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (double free and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by providing a NewSessionTicket during an attempt to reuse a ticket that had been obtained earlier.

The PKCS7dataDecodefunction in crypto/pkcs7/pk7doit.c in OpenSSL before 0.9.8zg, 1.0.0 before 1.0.0s, 1.0.1 before 1.0.1n, and 1.0.2 before 1.0.2b allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) via a PKCS#7 blob that uses ASN.1 encoding and lacks inner EncryptedContent data.
