Ubuntu Security Notice USN-1451-1

Ubuntu Security Notice USN-1451-1
Posted May 25, 2012
Authored by Ubuntu | Site security.ubuntu.com

Ubuntu Security Notice 1451-1 - Ivan Nestlerode discovered that the Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS) and PKCS #7 implementations in OpenSSL returned early if RSA decryption failed. This could allow an attacker to expose sensitive information via a Million Message Attack (MMA). It was discovered that an integer underflow was possible when using TLS 1.1, TLS 1.2, or DTLS with CBC encryption. This could allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service. Various other issues were also addressed.
