"Issue summary: When a delta CRL that contains a Delta CRL Indicator
extension is processed a NULL pointer dereference might happen if the
required CRL Number extension is missing.  Impact summary: A NULL
pointer dereference can trigger a crash which leads to a Denial of
Service for an application.  When CRL processing and delta CRL
processing is enabled during X.509 certificate verification, the delta
CRL processing does not check whether the CRL Number extension is NULL
before dereferencing it. When a malformed delta CRL file is being
processed, this parameter can be NULL, causing a NULL pointer
dereference.  Exploiting this issue requires the
X509_V_FLAG_USE_DELTAS flag to be enabled in the verification context,
the certificate being verified to contain a freshestCRL extension or
the base CRL to have the EXFLAG_FRESHEST flag set, and an attacker to
provide a malformed CRL to an application that processes it.  The
vulnerability is limited to Denial of Service and cannot be escalated
to achieve code execution or memory disclosure. For that reason the
issue was assessed as Low severity according to our Security Policy.
The FIPS modules in 3.6, 3.5, 3.4, 3.3 and 3.0 are not affected by
this issue, as the affected code is outside the OpenSSL FIPS module
boundary.
