Summary
Tony Battersby discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly handled key and
initialization vector (IV) lengths. This could lead to truncation issues
and result in loss of confidentiality for some symmetric cipher modes.
(CVE-2023-5363)
Juerg Wullschleger discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly handled the AES-SIV
cipher. This could lead to empty data entries being ignored, resulting in
certain applications being misled. This issue only affected Ubuntu 22.04
LTS and Ubuntu 23.04. (CVE-2023-2975)
It was discovered that OpenSSL incorrectly handled checking excessively
long DH keys or parameters. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue
to cause OpenSSL to consume resources, leading to a denial of service. This
issue only affected Ubuntu 22.04 LTS and Ubuntu 23.04. (CVE-2023-3446,
CVE-2023-3817)

Incorrect cipher key & IV length processing
Issue summary: A bug has been identified in the processing of key and initialisation vector (IV) lengths. This can lead to potential truncation or overruns during the initialisation of some symmetric ciphers. Impact summary: A truncation in the IV can result …

AES-SIV implementation ignores empty associated data entries
Issue summary: The AES-SIV cipher implementation contains a bug that causes it to ignore empty associated data entries which are unauthenticated as a consequence. Impact summary: Applications that use the AES-SIV algorithm and want to authenticate empty data …

Medium 5.3
Excessive time spent checking DH keys and parameters
Issue summary: Checking excessively long DH keys or parameters may be very slow. Impact summary: Applications that use the functions DH_check(), DH_check_ex() or EVP_PKEY_param_check() to check a DH key or DH parameters may experience long delays. Where the k…
