Category:General
Title:OpenSSL: ASN1 BIO Vulnerability (20120419) - Linux
Summary:OpenSSL is prone to an exploitable vulnerability in the; function asn1_d2i_read_bio.
Description:Summary:
OpenSSL is prone to an exploitable vulnerability in the
function asn1_d2i_read_bio.

Vulnerability Insight:
Any application which uses BIO or FILE based functions to read
untrusted DER format data is vulnerable. Affected functions are of the form d2i_*_bio or
d2i_*_fp, for example d2i_X509_bio or d2i_PKCS12_fp.

Applications using the memory based ASN1 functions (d2i_X509, d2i_PKCS12 etc)
are not affected. In particular the SSL/TLS code of OpenSSL is *not* affected.

Applications only using the PEM routines are not affected.

S/MIME or CMS applications using the built in MIME parser SMIME_read_PKCS7 or
SMIME_read_CMS *are* affected.

The OpenSSL command line utility is also affected if used to process untrusted
data in DER format.

Note: although an application using the SSL/TLS portions of OpenSSL is not
automatically affected it might still call a function such as d2i_X509_bio on
untrusted data and be vulnerable.

Affected Software/OS:
OpenSSL 0.9.8 through 0.9.8u and 1.0.0 through 1.0.0g and 1.0.1.

Solution:
Update to version 0.9.8v, 1.0.0i, 1.0.1a or later.

CVSS Score:
7.5
