Due to improper handling of alert packets, OpenSSL would consume an excessive amount of CPU time processing undefined alert messages.
Impact : A remote attacker who can initiate handshakes with an OpenSSL based server can cause the server to consume a lot of computation power with very little bandwidth usage, and may be able to use this technique in a leveraged Denial of Service attack.
