Vulnerability Details
CVE-ID: CVE-2014-3509
Description: OpenSSL is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a race condition in the ssl_parse_serverhello_tlsext() code. If a multithreaded client connects to a malicious server using a resumed session, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service.
CVSS Base Score: 4.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See <http://xforce.iss.net/xforce/xfdb/95159> for current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P)
CVE-ID: CVE-2014-3506
Description: OpenSSL is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by an error when processing DTLS handshake messages. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to consume an overly large amount of memory.
CVSS Base Score: 5
CVSS Temporal Score: See <http://xforce.iss.net/xforce/xfdb/95160> for current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P)
CVE-ID: CVE-2014-3507
Description: OpenSSL is vulnerable to a denial of service. By sending specially-crafted DTLS packets, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to leak memory and cause a denial of service.
CVSS Base Score: 5
CVSS Temporal Score: See <http://xforce.iss.net/xforce/xfdb/95161> for current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P)
CVE-ID: CVE-2014-3511
Description: OpenSSL could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by the negotiation of TLS 1.0 instead of higher protocol versions by the OpenSSL SSL/TLS server code when handling a badly fragmented ClientHello message. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability using man-in-the-middle techniques to force a downgrade to TLS 1.0.
CVSS Base Score: 4.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See <http://xforce.iss.net/xforce/xfdb/95162> for current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N)
CVE-ID: CVE-2014-3505
Description: OpenSSL is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a double-free error when handling DTLS packets. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause the system to crash.
CVSS Base Score: 5
CVSS Temporal Score: See <http://xforce.iss.net/xforce/xfdb/95163> for current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P)
CVE-ID: CVE-2014-3510
Description: OpenSSL is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by a NULL pointer dereference in anonymous ECDH ciphersuites. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability using a malicious handshake to cause the client to crash.
CVSS Base Score: 4.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See <http://xforce.iss.net/xforce/xfdb/95164> for current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P)
CVE-ID: CVE-2014-3508
Description: OpenSSL could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by an error in OBJ_obj2txt. If applications echo pretty printing output, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to read information from the stack.
CVSS Base Score: 4.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See <http://xforce.iss.net/xforce/xfdb/95165> for current score
