Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2013-167

Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2013-167
Posted May 28, 2013
Authored by Mandriva | Site mandriva.com

Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2013-167 - OpenVPN 2.3.0 and earlier running in UDP mode are subject to chosen ciphertext injection due to a non-constant-time HMAC comparison function. Plaintext recovery may be possible using a padding oracle attack on the CBC mode cipher implementation of the crypto library, optimistically at a rate of about one character per 3 hours. PolarSSL seems vulnerable to such an attack; the vulnerability of OpenSSL has not been verified or tested.
