    Client DoS due to large DH parameter

    During key agreement in a TLS handshake using a DH(E) based ciphersuite a malicious server can send a very large prime value to the client. This will cause the client to spend an unreasonably long period of time generating a key for this prime resulting in a …

    CVE-2018-0737 EPSS 12%

    Cache timing vulnerability in RSA Key Generation

    The OpenSSL RSA Key generation algorithm has been shown to be vulnerable to a cache timing side channel attack. An attacker with sufficient access to mount cache timing attacks during the RSA key generation process could recover the private key. Fixed in Open…

    CVE-2018-0739 EPSS 19%

    Constructed ASN.1 types with a recursive definition could exceed the stack

    Constructed ASN.1 types with a recursive definition (such as can be found in PKCS7) could eventually exceed the stack given malicious input with excessive recursion. This could result in a Denial Of Service attack. There are no such structures used within SSL…
