"The remote AlmaLinux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
ALSA-2021:5226 advisory.
- ASN.1 strings are represented internally within OpenSSL as an ASN1_STRING structure which contains a
buffer holding the string data and a field holding the buffer length. This contrasts with normal C strings
which are repesented as a buffer for the string data which is terminated with a NUL (0) byte. Although not
a strict requirement, ASN.1 strings that are parsed using OpenSSL's own d2i functions (and other similar
parsing functions) as well as any string whose value has been set with the ASN1_STRING_set() function will
additionally NUL terminate the byte array in the ASN1_STRING structure. However, it is possible for
applications to directly construct valid ASN1_STRING structures which do not NUL terminate the byte array
by directly setting the data and length fields in the ASN1_STRING array. This can also happen by using
the ASN1_STRING_set0() function. Numerous OpenSSL functions that print ASN.1 data have been found to
assume that the ASN1_STRING byte array will be NUL terminated, even though this is not guaranteed for
strings that have been directly constructed. Where an application requests an ASN.1 structure to be
printed, and where that ASN.1 structure contains ASN1_STRINGs that have been directly constructed by the
application without NUL terminating the data field, then a read buffer overrun can occur. The same thing
can also occur during name constraints processing of certificates (for example if a certificate has been
directly constructed by the application instead of loading it via the OpenSSL parsing functions, and the
certificate contains non NUL terminated ASN1_STRING structures). It can also occur in the
X509_get1_email(), X509_REQ_get1_email() and X509_get1_ocsp() functions. If a malicious actor can cause an
application to directly construct an ASN1_STRING and then process it through one of the affected OpenSSL
functions then this issue could be hit. This might result in a crash (causing a Denial of Service attack).
It could also result in the disclosure of private memory contents (such as private keys, or sensitive
plaintext). Fixed in OpenSSL 1.1.1l (Affected 1.1.1-1.1.1k). Fixed in OpenSSL 1.0.2za (Affected
1.0.2-1.0.2y). (CVE-2021-3712)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
